What is Textreme Glitter Thread Light?

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDSThe light colours of Textreme Glitter Thread Light are perfect for imitating pale mayflies, caddisflies and modern Perdigon nymphs. For maximum effect, wrap the thread over a light-coloured underbody and finish with a thin coat of UV resin. This creates a smooth, durable fly body with a refined natural shimmer that attracts fish without appearing overly flashy. |
