Seven to eight inches long would not be unusual for Lakota/Nakota/etc.  You can make them about 3/8 high at the back with a straight taper down to the front of the fletch.

If your arrows fly well bare shaft it shouldn't take much fletching to aid the flight of a broadhead. You may just have to do a few test shots.
 From looking at "Native American Bows, Arrows and Quivers" by Hamm & Allely the Sioux arrows they have drawn have fletching from about 5" to 8" long and about 3/8" tall at the highest point.
