#4522= pink worm
#4523= net spinner olive
#4527= Hebe dun
#4528= Pink Albert

Sandfly
Best I could come up with, what's the width for this stuff? I bet this would make great abdomens on Stonefly Nymphs and for Scud back and Caddis larva and pupa abdomens.

1/16 in. I use it for caddis, stone flys, wet flies, etc..check out the wet flys I did on another thread. coated it with solareze UV to give it depth.

is it available in 1/8", 3/16" ? looks to be a neat way to do bodies

Used to have it in a larger size will have to go digging for some...
here is the blue quill for the summit, some lucky person will be getting these flies.

Interesting. does it cut easily for smaller flies?

As far as colors I am more of a can of naming the color not the fly. in one area its a BWO out west it may be more like a Western Green Drake.

reminds me of tyvek house wrapping paper

If you are asking for opinions I will give mine. Looks good for bodies but not for wings. Actually, it is not the way it looks but more how it will function. I feel wings are somewhat overrated on smaller flies to begin with but that material looks way to stiff to use as a wing. I feel it will twist tippet when casted. I tie some cut wing patterns for olives. In an attempt to make them a little tougher I coated the wings with a very thin coat of flexament. Tied a batch of flies. The damn things twisted my tippet like crazy so I tossed them. I would really test them out before I market that material as a winging option.

It looks great. Would they work well on mayfly nymphs and french style nymphs? If so I will take some in brown or tan or grey. PM me if you are willing to sell.
