What is Textreme Body Fly?
Textreme Body Fly is a flat, semi-transparent synthetic body material reinforced with a double nylon monofilament support for exceptional strength and easy handling. Its translucent construction allows the colour of the underbody to show through, creating remarkable depth and a highly natural appearance.
The Light Colours collection is particularly well suited for tying mayflies, pupae, nymphs and other aquatic insect imitations in cream, yellow, olive and sandy shades. The material produces slim, clean fly bodies without unnecessary bulk, making it suitable for both traditional and modern competition fly patterns.

FLYFISHING.BG RECOMMENDSOne of the greatest advantages of Textreme Body Fly is its translucency. Wrap it over coloured tying thread, a thin layer of dubbing or a pearlescent underbody to create exceptional colour depth and a remarkably natural appearance. Finish with a thin coat of UV resin for maximum durability and an even more realistic body. |
