Semperfli Fly Tying Materials:
The Best In Fly Tying Materials – Home Of Nano Silk
A hybrid between a thread and a fine round tinsel, Iridescent threads are a fine tinsel wrapped around fine monofilament strands as a core. For fly tying it acts like a fine wire. Wrapped tight around a fine hook and the strands of tinsel can be opened slightly if you wish giving a slightly faceted, gleaming surface.
Developed initially for vibrant buzzers and chironomids, caenis and corixa water boatman, but turned out to be a thread that is ideal for Trout, Salmon, Saltwater and Predator flies for bodies, thoraxes and vibrant hot spots.
