Overview
Built for surface flies that need to ride high and move water, this foam body is aimed at anglers tying gurglers for redfish, trout, bass, peacock bass, and other surface-feeders. The laser-cut, two-tone design is made to provide consistent shape and visibility, while the fast tie-in profile keeps the tying process straightforward with no trimming or shaping required. Offered in Medium and Small sizes, it can be matched to a range of hook sizes for different patterns and applications. Pack options in 6 or 12 count make it suitable for sample tying, bulk runs, or stocking a fly box.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Available in two sizes, so hook compatibility needs to be matched to the pattern you’re tying: Small is listed for #6–#2 hooks, while Medium is listed for #2–2/0 hooks.
- Sold in 6-pack and 12-pack options, which is useful for different tying needs but means you’ll want to choose the pack size based on whether you’re sampling the body or building in quantity.
- This is a pre-cut foam body, not a finished fly, so it still requires your own tying materials and assembly.
- The two-tone foam is designed for visibility and contrast, but color choice should still be matched to the water and presentation you’re targeting.
