Maybe they have to specially treat them for avian flu before exporting them
to Europe. ?

So,
I found the saddle in Denmark...and ordered it already. Shipping is low
and fast - hopefully.
Bought a grizzly Eurosaddle from Whiting, which was labeled as
'Flatwing' in the confirmation... I know the flatwings (We had a hackle
swap with these as well), but in the context of Eurosaddle?

Mart,
good idea, found a saddle at korsholm, but there is so much text in
danish. I sent 'em an email and asked for shipment etc. Let's see how it
turns out.
Don: Thanks for your kind offer. I'll ty indeed only 1 fly for sort of
competition, but wanted to do some more for fishing. If I can get the
saddle from Denmark, I'm fine. Otherwise I will come back to your kind
offer, and will ty the practice flies with orange...

I'd check out some Danish webshops (Go Fishing in Odense for instance,
or Korsholm http://www.korsholm.dk/fiskeri.html) if I were you. They
have a lot of feathers not easily found elsewhere, and shipping should
be reasonable. Hurry though, before the euro drops even more!

Subject: [VFB] Magenta, Golden Badger American Hackle
Hi Don, all,
I'm on the lookout for some magenta and golden badger hackle for
winging
a streamer. Whiting's American Hackle Necks look perfect, and at least
they seem to come in the right colors (From W. site), but I cannot find
'em in shops. Are these colors available right now? Any idea where to
get them? I found http://www.saltwaterflytyers.com who carry at least
magenta as a saddle. But they charge 30 bucks just for shipping to me.
Any substitute in case? I need it to ty a Carrie's Favorite.
Magenta is the problem, If I cannot get my hands on a Golden Badger, i
have a saddle from Denny, and I'll find some suitable feather on it, as
a 'plan B'.
Rene
