ASIN: B07PQ73N91Category: Fly Tying Materials
Overview
A coil of polished copper wire is the working material here, wrapped around a hook shank to rib or add weight to a fly. The finish is described as non-tarnishing, and the listing covers nymphs, streamers and dry flies.
Gives tyers a color range in a thin wire that holds its shine. The listing's title, wire diameter and thickness fields do not agree, and the length does not say how it is divided across the six colors.
Who it's for
Tyers of nymphs, streamers and dry flies who wrap copper for segmentation and flash. People who need exact diameter and length per color should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Six colors in a set
- Polished round wire
- Many pattern uses
- Diameter conflicts across fields
- Length per color unclear
- Tensile figure is generic
- Thin wire can cut thread
Performance notes
Copper wire wraps tightly around a hook shank and holds its position, adding segmentation and a little weight. A thinner gauge makes finer ribs and wraps closer, while a thicker gauge adds visibility. A non-tarnishing finish holds the color bright over time.
