I happen to like and own a couple of the Genetic Dry Fly capes and Red-X capes from Lakeland Fly Tying, priced at £30 each and they are very very good. I have also used David Rice capes which are reasonable cheap at around £15 to £20. I bought my from Grafham and Rutland Lodges and Glasgow angling used to sell them. Any of these capes are a high enough quality to last you through your fly tying career.

You can swallow it in sips, but it can swallow you whole if you fall into a deep place. You can't catch hold of it, but it can catch hold of you, even if you just look at it."
