Description

The Keough Saddle Number #1 Grade in Natural Grizzly are a great way to get yourself loads of dry fly feathers in a range of sizes. Of course, the natural grizzly hackle is probably the most used colour in dry fly patterns, so there are plenty of options available with these saddles. These dry fly saddles offer a bigger range of feather sizes to most genetic saddles. You get a lot of feathers around the #10 – #14 size range. But, there’s also smaller and larger feathers in these saddles as well. The Keough Grizzly Saddle in the Number #2 Grade doesn’t offer as many feathers as the premium Number #1 Grade, but is more economical.

Keough Hackles was founded by the man himself, Bill Keough. He personally oversees all the operations at Keough Hackle in Mendon, MI. There they produce top quality genetic hackle. To quote Bill himself, you’ll “tie better flies with Keough brand feathers”. We have chosen to add the Keough saddle and cape range of saddles and capes to our regular stock holding at Troutlore as we believe these to be excellent quality dry fly feathers at a sharper price than similar products on the market.

Of course, if you want to create all sorts of natural looking fly patterns, then our ever growing range of natural feathers is the ideal place to start. Aside from all the hackles, marbou, Coq De Leon and Cul De Canard that we have on offer, you can find some real gems the Other Feathers Category of the Troutlore Flytying Store. If you can’t find a product you are specifically looking for, get in touch and we will see if it can be sourced, and kept in stock. Plus, you can keep up to date with new releases through our newsletter and social media outlets.
