Fly Tying Flash Fibres

Flash fibres for fly tying

This category brings together bright, reflective and holographic fibres for fly tying. The active range includes Crystalflash, Flashabou, Krystal Flash, Angel Flash, holographic fibres, glossy flash and related Textreme and JMC materials.

Add flash and contrast

These fibres are used to create reflections, bright accents and contrast in bodies, wings, tails and streamers. They can be tied in on their own or blended with other materials depending on the desired effect.

Choose by fineness and length

Fibre width, length and stiffness affect the finished profile. Fine fibres suit smaller flies and subtle highlights, while broader or longer fibres create a stronger visual presence.

Pearlescent, holographic and metallic effects

Pearlescent, holographic and metallic finishes produce different reflections depending on light and viewing angle. Choose according to pattern, fly size and the amount of contrast required.

Control the amount of flash

A small number of fibres is often enough to add a visual signal without adding unnecessary bulk. Match the quantity to hook size and the intended profile.
