Hey all,

This is mainly to show Hamish what I got but thought I would share it with everyone.

Got some CDC packs, 2 Cock capes and some thread. All TOP NOTCH quality.

Look at the cape, much better that the other one I have which is running out, alot more usable sized hackles on these. Always run out of the small ones :s

cheers

Some nice stuff there m8

- they are bags of 100 feathers

- they have cheaper capes but the guy sent me these as i specified for small to medium hackles, think these are best quality they have, £6.50

yea really chuffed, the guy was going on holiday the day I phoned (monday) low and behold stuff arrived today (well yesterday now, tues) great service!!!

I managed to get a Black, a Cree, a Ginger and Greenwells Metz capes for £10 each

I can get around 4 flies per hackle, more on the smaller flies..they are superb!

They are so fine that the smallest ones will do a size 18 with no problems and down to size 20 on some hackles.

The joys of closing down sales

Aye, I've bumped into the Cookshill guys at a couple of shows and it's very difficult not to spend any cash on their stands

Quality materials, never been less than impressed with their stock and always helpful

Pleased they sorted you out OK
