What is Hends Luminous Flat Tubing?
Hends Luminous Flat Tubing is a soft synthetic tubing that stretches to fit a wide range of hook sizes and fly patterns. After exposure to daylight or a UV light, it emits a long-lasting glow that helps attract fish in low-light environments and poor underwater visibility.
The flat design makes it suitable for wrapping complete fly bodies, creating realistic wing cases, adding segmented effects or producing eye-catching highlights. It can also be cut into narrow strips for smaller patterns requiring fine luminous details.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDSBefore fishing, "charge" Hends Luminous Flat Tubing using a UV torch or strong daylight for maximum glow. For smaller patterns, cut the tubing into narrow strips to create subtle luminous wing cases or segmented bodies on nymphs and streamers without adding unnecessary bulk. |
