Following the lead of hunter 7711 & Jungle Jim – decided to dump some saddles. Still have a bunch of capes so not having saddles isn’t a real heartbreaker. I can easily wait for the fad to end and will be around to snap up the glut when the fad wears out.
This is an excellent opportunity to get rid of a bunch of old stock. Have some old Metz saddles I paid $10 to $12.50 for and they now have the potential to make $200 to $300 – not a hard decision. The Hoffman's and Keoughs are off the chart! And besides how many jig patterns does anyone tye that require the long saddles. You can still do the same patterns with hackle from a cape – it might take a couple of more hackles.
I sent a dozen to a member here, niece took 26 saddles today (took all the peacock eyes I had also), and I’m going to try to keep my last dozen saddles…. This is going to be very interesting.
