Long Wavy Fancy Dress Wigs With Fringe 10 Different Colours | eBay

Bought some hairpiece extensions at Poundland last year four colours for a poundjust the job for pike lures easker1

Poundland ! of course cheers i`ll have a look next time Im near one

have a look at the wigs on ebay, enough for a million large flies, someone is making a killing from selling those hanks

I have tried quite a few synthetic hair and wig materials and the best by far IMHO is kanekolon jumbo braid hair material from e.g. KK Jumbo Braid very cheap and a huge range of useful colours. I rarely use anything else now for pike and saltwater flies.

Some great stuff there

Thats a great link, thanks

I got three colours of this stuff, its brilliant and easy to tie

works out very cheap too thanks again

What is the texture of the material like and when tied are the tales like marabou or buck tail? Thanks.

I use the same stuff (KK) from a place called buyhair. A lifetimes supply of any colour you like is about £2.

They supply straight and crinkled hair. It is much coarser than marabou, but still has plenty of movement in the water.

Hope this helps.

see what else they have
