Overview
This tying material is designed to add flash and help smooth transitions in Game Changer-style flies, especially where articulated sections meet. It can be palmered, collared, or used for color segments, giving tiers a flexible option for filling gaps in the body of a pattern. The black color suits a range of fly builds where a darker accent or transition is desired. At 1-1/2 inches wide and 3 yards per pack, it provides enough material for multiple custom ties.
