What is Chocklett's Body Tubing?
Chocklett's Body Tubing has become one of the most popular materials for modern predator fly tying. The hollow braided construction acts as an internal framework that supports natural or synthetic fibres, allowing fly tyers to create oversized heads and bodies while keeping flies remarkably light and easy to cast.
The white version is especially versatile because it can easily be coloured with permanent markers. This allows you to create custom colour blends, baitfish patterns and natural transitions without adding extra materials or weight to the fly.
