daip is on a distinguished road
Default Help please..where can I buy this from?

Hello All,

I have taken up fishing and tying again after quite a long break and I am having trouble finding this very thin twisted flash material to add to my tails etc.

Click the image to open in full size.

You can see how thin it is against the Marabou of this fly I bought. I have plenty of the thicker material but this is a bit more subtle. A trade name and seller would be much apprciated.

I have learnt a lot from the forum many thanks to all who contribute, and I have found that there is a great feeling of satisfaction catching on your own fly's.

Cheers

Dave

The material you're looking for has several trade names, but crystal flash is a generally known one. Virtually every fly tying stockist carries it as do most tackle shops that sell tying materials. It comes in loads in loads of colours but pearl is by far the most popular.
