JMC Red Fox
Premium Natural Red Fox Hair for Streamers, Salmon and Steelhead Flies
JMC Red Fox is premium natural Red Fox hair featuring a dense, soft underfur and long, silky guard hairs with a natural taper. This unique combination delivers outstanding movement, controlled profile retention and subtle natural colour variations, making it one of the most versatile natural materials available for fly tying. It is equally at home in streamers, Salmon flies, Steelhead patterns, wet flies and custom dubbing blends.
The soft underfur is ideal for creating lifelike dubbed bodies, while the longer guard hairs produce elegant wings, tails and collars that pulse naturally with every movement of the fly. This versatility has made Red Fox a favourite material among both traditional and modern fly tyers.
What is JMC Red Fox?
JMC Red Fox is natural Red Fox hair consisting of a fine, dense underfur covered by long, supple guard hairs. The underfur is perfect for natural dubbing, while the guard hairs provide flowing movement and a clean, tapered silhouette for streamer wings, tails and collars.
Unlike stiffer natural hairs, Red Fox combines excellent movement with enough structure to maintain an attractive profile, making it suitable for both classic and contemporary fly patterns.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDATIONCompared with Silver Fox, Red Fox is a more versatile material because both the soft underfur and the long guard hairs are equally useful—the underfur produces excellent natural dubbing while the guard hairs create lively wings and streamer tails. Compared with Arctic Fox, Red Fox retains a slightly cleaner profile while still providing plenty of natural movement. If you want one natural material that can be used for everything from nymphs and wet flies to Salmon flies and modern streamers, Red Fox is one of the most practical and versatile choices for any fly tying bench. |
