Lots of suppliers offer purple hackle, but I have noticed that some look better than others. Skip will chime in here in a while and I would go with his recommendation. He has bought so much over the last few years that I'm sure he knows who has the goods.
crazy angler buddy......Got mine from there

No real picture of the purple but I have always been happy with Hareline and Wapsi products. This is my "go to" supplier when I can't find something.

thanks snakeriver that is very nice of you.
BOB your are the man!!!! Thats why you are man of the year on here
I am happy with C. Anglers colors in hackle I bought 99% of my hackle from Robert.
Remember it's hard to get purple to come out as purple in a picture and usually will just look dark blue.
Snake is a good guy and feel sure he will take care of you.
FYI I have at least 2 different purples, but most don't carry my favorite which is the Salt Water Hackle.

there are so many different purples is I do my own dying feathers in it gets very interesting. You have to keep close notes on what you are doing because you can take one single color and get over 500 zillion shades.Quote:
