<<Never mind how you size them, where did you get them ??>>

You can find them almost everywhere. I found mine at the local fishing shop.
It was this Indian flexible type, which I like best as they aren't trimmed
down when you buy them. You save a lot of time since you don't have to sit
browsing through the cape in search for the right size. On these ones you
just grab one and trim it down yourself to the size that suits your fly
best. I was wondering why something this genious could be that cheap, but I
realized soon. Producers like Whiting and Metz probably have a lot of
manpower for trimming the hackles on their capes and saddles.

Never mind how you size them, where did you get them ??

bend the hackle round the shank of the hook , it should be about 1.5 times 
the gape of the hook.
