Product information "UTC Mirage Opal Tinsel"

The UTC Mirage Opal Tinsel is a very versatile material that is not transparent and features a multi-colored mirror finish. Mirage Opal Tinsel can be used for ribbing as well as a variety of different bodies.

 

One of the most interesting uses is for tying “flashbacks” into nymph patterns. For this, tie in a strip of Tinsel on the top of the pattern after completion of the abdomen, then finish the desired thorax and legs, then pull the tinsel over the top of the thorax and tie it off into the head. This creates a wonderful finish to a variety of nymph patterns. 

 

Available in different widths.

 

Length: 7.20m/coil
