Wow Jens that looks like a killer. Those colours are great. I dont use flies with tails as long as that, I can only imagine the movement in the water.

 

That arctic runner looks like some wild stuff, where do you pick that stuff up?

Hi Phil

Thanks

"Artic Runner" is horse hair from the body of an Icelandic horse.

I do not know of any shop that sells it. You have to get it from someone in Iceland I think.

Hi Jens

 

Nice work, but the body should be PEARL mylar floss and it is very important do use the red thread under the body, becaus you will haf á nice color on the body.

 

RoyalWulff I can sell you this Arctic Runner no problem

 

I have used this material for many years and that is one of the best material in the world for small flies and i mean it.

 

Soft and very easy to work with and give the fly extra live in the water.
