Product Description
•••••
Designed to imitate natural Peacock Herl, Semperfli Synthetic Peacock Herl is a fritz / chenille which contains all the iridescents that you find in natural Peacock Herl...accents of blue, green, copper and gold highlight and change in different lighting conditions just like natural Peacock Herl.
Peacock herl has been used for many years as a fly tying material. With its stunning iridescence, fly tyers love the way the colors change as you look at this amazing material. Because of recent CITES restrictions on natural herl, the Semperfli team decided to create a synthetic peacock herl that would reflect different colors. This new synthetic material has black, blue and green backgrounds and different colored tinsels embedded. Built on a tight core, this synthetic is designed to mimic peacock’s natural iridescence and color changing properties as light hits different parts of the herl. With this synthetic herl you can cover the hook very quickly with simple wraps to create perfect alternative to Peacock Herl without the concern that your Peacock Herl will snap mid fly.
This synthetic peacock herl is available in Extra Small (2mm) and Small (4mm).
When SemperFli worked on the prototypes of this product, samples were sent to some of their pro team for testing. They received exciting feedback. Hans van Klinken immediately used it as the thorax of his Klinkhamer and told us its absolutely great, awesome for Klinkhamer 2.0 for size 12 and larger flies. You will see it in his book when it is released!
