Arctic Finnraccoon Patch
Premium Finnish Finn Raccoon Fur for Streamers, Tube Flies, Salmon and Steelhead Patterns
Arctic Finnraccoon Patch is premium natural fur from certified Finnish Finn Raccoon. It combines an exceptionally soft underfur with long, naturally barred guard hairs, producing a full profile and incredibly lifelike movement even in the slowest currents. This unique combination has made Finn Raccoon one of the most respected natural materials in modern fly tying for Scandinavian tube flies, large streamers and predator patterns.
Finn Raccoon is widely used for streamers, tube flies, Salmon, Steelhead, Pike and Saltwater patterns. The material creates a large, flowing profile without excessive bulk while remaining easy to work with. It also combines exceptionally well with Bucktail and other stiffer natural hairs to produce flies that maintain their shape while retaining maximum movement in the water.
What is Arctic Finnraccoon Patch?
Arctic Finnraccoon Patch is a natural fur patch featuring long guard hairs and a dense, soft underfur. The underfur can be used for natural dubbing or dubbing loops, while the longer fibres create beautifully flowing wings and tails with constant pulsating movement underwater.
Unlike many natural wing materials, Finn Raccoon produces a rich silhouette without creating bulky fly heads. This makes it especially popular for modern Scandinavian tube flies, Spey patterns and large streamers where movement is more important than stiffness.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDATIONCompared with Arctic Fox, Finn Raccoon creates a denser, fuller silhouette while maintaining outstanding movement. Compared with Bucktail, Finn Raccoon is significantly softer and more mobile, whereas Bucktail provides better profile support. Combining the two materials is one of the classic Scandinavian tube fly techniques—Bucktail maintains the fly's shape while Finn Raccoon adds maximum movement. If you're tying modern tube flies, large streamers or Salmon and Steelhead flies, Arctic Finnraccoon Patch is one of the finest natural materials available. |
Classic Applications of Arctic Finnraccoon Patch

The combination of dense underfur and long guard hairs produces a large, flowing profile with continuous natural movement underwater.
