Hends Arctic Fox
Exceptionally Soft Fur with Unmatched Movement for Streamers and Predator Flies
Hends Arctic Fox is premium natural Arctic fox fur selected for its long, incredibly soft fibres and exceptional mobility in the water. It is one of the most popular natural materials for tying streamers, salmon flies, Steelhead flies and modern predator patterns where realistic movement is often the key to success. Premium Arctic fox fur gives flies a highly natural appearance and lifelike action.
When wet, the fibres collapse into a slim, natural silhouette, then expand and pulse with every pause or strip of the retrieve. This characteristic "breathing" action has made Arctic Fox one of the finest natural materials for imitating baitfish and other swimming prey.
What is Arctic Fox?
Arctic Fox is a premium natural fur valued for its remarkable softness, fine fibres and subtle natural sheen. Unlike Bucktail or Calf Tail, Arctic Fox fibres are much softer and follow every movement of the current, creating exceptionally lifelike animation.
The material can be used for complete wings, tails, collars or entire baitfish profiles. It blends beautifully with flash materials, synthetic fibres and feathers, allowing fly tyers to build large, mobile streamers without unnecessary weight or bulk.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDATIONIf we had to choose one natural material that produces the most lifelike movement in the water, Arctic Fox would be at the top of the list. Compared to Bucktail, it is considerably softer and more mobile, while producing cleaner, lighter streamer profiles than Rabbit Zonker Strips. Choose Arctic Fox whenever your priority is maximum movement with minimum weight, especially for baitfish imitations, salmon flies and modern predator streamers. |
Classic Fly Patterns Using Arctic Fox
Arctic Fox is widely used in modern streamers, salmon flies, Steelhead flies and saltwater baitfish patterns. Whether tied as a complete wing or blended with Bucktail, feathers, flash or synthetic fibres, it creates streamlined profiles with exceptional movement that consistently trigger aggressive takes from predatory fish.
