    Custom ties feather trebles

    Hey guys, I am looking for someone to hand tie some feather trebles for me. Want to do a little longer hackle than normally comes on most hooks. Nothing crazy just a white, chart/white, and chart with a little flashabou.

    Any recommendations?

    thanks

    You can do this easily with feathers, thread and Sally Hansen's hard as nails polish.

    Watch a couple YouTube vids.

    I can do it for you just have to work out a price. Or Joanne’s fabric going out of business might be able to still find feathers and thread for cheap. Any hobby store should be cheaper. Like 21xdc said. Nail polish for glue or just whip finish it twice. Small work vice is all you need.

    I've done these quite a bit for a few people. How long do you want the feathers? I can get some at my local fly shop. Do you have a particular hook you want to use and thread color? PM me if you want and I can give you my number for us to discuss.
