Arctic Fox Hair
Arctic Fox Hair is a fine-textured, durable material that's become a go-to for tyers who want their Steelhead and Sea-Run Cutthroat patterns to actually move like they're alive. This isn't your average craft store fluff—it's the real deal for winging patterns that need to perform.
Key Features:
- Fine texture with natural movement - Breathes underwater with lifelike action that makes fish take notice
- Surprisingly durable - Soft to the touch but tough enough to handle multiple fish and aggressive strikes
- Excellent for winging patterns - Perfect for Steelhead flies, Sea-Run Cutthroat streamers, and larger patterns
- Easy to work with - Ties in cleanly without excessive bulk or frustration
- Natural taper and flow - Creates realistic silhouettes that selective fish actually want to eat
Best Uses:
- Steelhead and salmon fly wings
- Sea-Run Cutthroat streamers for coastal waters
- Streamer patterns requiring lifelike movement
- Any pattern where durability and action are essential
A versatile material that delivers consistent performance for both swung flies and stripped streamers. Once you see how it moves in the water, you'll understand why it's a staple at the vise.
