What is Textreme ST Type?
Textreme ST Type is a specialised round metallic thread developed for tying slim, clean and perfectly proportioned fly bodies. Unlike flat metallic materials, its round profile produces crisp segmentation and uniform ribbing while remaining easy to control during tying.
It is particularly well suited for modern Perdigon nymphs, where compact bodies, metallic reflections and exceptional durability are essential. It is equally effective as a ribbing material for dry flies, wet flies, salmon flies and many other patterns that require a subtle metallic accent.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDSTextreme ST Type performs exceptionally well when tying Perdigon nymphs. After forming the body, apply a thin coat of UV resin to achieve the smooth, durable and highly reflective finish that has made this style of nymph so effective in both competition and everyday fishing. |
