COMMERCIAL CAPE MEDIUM GINGER

Whiting Farms hackles represent an absolute benchmark in modern artificial fly tying. The famous Whiting capes are considered the standard for dry fly construction, thanks to uncompromising build quality.

Appreciated for the uniform density of the barbs, the extraordinary fiber strength, and the wide range of sizes available on a single skin, these capes offer a unique versatility.

The result of decades of advanced genetic selection, they allow fly tyers to precisely and efficiently create a wide variety of imitations: from the smallest and most technical patterns, such as midges, to larger flies like mayflies.

Perfect both for the construction of highly technical dry flies and for attractors with high buoyancy, Whiting capes guarantee consistent performance, durability over time, and a level of uniformity that satisfies even the most demanding tiers.

Main features:

• Reference standard for dry fly hackles
• Consistent and uniform barb density
• Strong, high-quality fibers
• Wide range of sizes on a single cape
• Advanced genetic selection for superior performance
• Ideal for technical patterns and high buoyancy flies

An essential choice for those seeking precision, reliability, and professional results in fly tying.

Whiting Olympic Classification System

The Whiting Olympic Classification System was developed to ensure a consistent, transparent, and reliable evaluation of skins and saddles dedicated to dry fly tying.

Unlike other market standards, Whiting Farms adopts a classification method constant over time, independent of production variations, batches, or commercial dynamics. This means each product is evaluated according to objective and uniform criteria, without influences related to demand or market needs.

Uncompromising Quality

At the core of the system is a fundamental principle: the quality of the feather must always be guaranteed.

Every feather intended for sale meets strict requirements:

• Flexible and twist-free quill, for precise work
• High barbule density, for superior performance
• Over 85% membrane-free structure, ideal for highly performing dry flies

Skins that do not meet these standards are not released to the retail market, thus ensuring a consistent and reliable quality level for every fly tyer.

A Reference for Professionals

Thanks to this system, Whiting products offer:

• True uniformity across different lines
• Predictable and consistent performance
• Maximum confidence in material selection

The result? A classification system designed to reflect the true value of the product, offering fly tyers the assurance of always working with excellent materials.
