Wapsi Moose Mane

When trout key on delicate mayflies and selective fish refuse sloppy proportions, Wapsi Moose Mane gives fly tiers the natural texture and stiffness needed to create clean, segmented bodies and lifelike tails. Removed from the hide and offered as a mix of coarse black, brown, gray, and white hairs, this supple yet durable material measures approximately 5 inches in length and handles easily at the vise. Many tiers rely on moose mane as a quill body substitute for dry flies, forming tight, segmented bodies that float high and fool rising brown trout, rainbow trout, and cutthroat trout. The long fibers also excel for mayfly tails, extended bodies, midge bodies, and fine legs on a wide range of fresh and saltwater patterns. From classic Catskill-style dries to technical tailwater midges and even selective flats patterns for bonefish, moose mane remains a key material in productive fly tying recipes around the world.Supple yet durable hair blend in coarse black, brown, gray, and whitePopular quill body substitute for segmented dry fly bodies and antennaeIdeal for mayfly tails, extended bodies, midge bodies, and legs on freshwater and saltwater fliesApprox. 5-inch fibers…
