What This Thread Is

A high‑quality, lightly waxed polyester fly tying thread from Semperfli, designed specifically for trout and streamer patterns. It lays flat, grips materials well, and stays strong even in finer sizes so you can build clean, low‑bulk flies.

Best Uses

General‑purpose thread for a wide range of flies, depending on the size you choose:

• Finer sizes (18/0 or 12/0): dries, emergers, midges, and nymphs
• Heavier sizes (8/0 or 6/0): terrestrials and streamers

Why It Matters

• Lays flat for less bulk
  Slightly twisted construction lets the thread flatten on the hook shank, so you can keep bodies slim and avoid bulky heads.
• Just the right amount of wax
  Light wax coating adds grip on hair, dubbing, and synthetics without gumming up your bobbin.
• Strong for its diameter
  Built to handle tight wraps, flare deer hair, and cinch materials down without constant break‑offs.
• Easy to split for dubbing loops
  The construction makes it simple to open up the thread for dubbing loops when you want extra bugginess or bulk.
• Wide color range
  Offered in a full palette of natural, bright, and fluorescent colors so you can match hatches or build high‑vis attractors.

What’s in the Spool

1x Spool of Semperfli Classic Waxed Thread in your selected size and color.

What This Wire Is

A premium, non‑tarnishing fly tying wire from Semperfli, designed for ribbing, bodies, and adding subtle weight to nymphs, wets, streamers, and even some dry flies. Available in multiple diameters and colors to match everything from tiny midges to big nymph and streamer patterns.

Best Uses

Use lighter diameters for:

• Lighter diameters (0.1 or 0.2 mm): Midges, small nymphs, and dry flies where you want fine, low‑bulk ribbing
• Heavier diameters (0.3+ mm): Brassies, stoneflies, buggers, streamers, and other larger patterns

Why It Matters

• Non‑tarnishing wire that keeps its color and shine, even after time on the water
• Consistent diameter and smooth coating so it wraps cleanly without kinks or weak spots
• Strong but easy to use – just wiggle to break at the hook, so you don’t ruin your scissors
• Neat, level spooling that helps prevent bird’s nests, with a cap to keep the tag end secure between sessions
• Wide color range so you can add subtle segmentation, bold hotspots, or full wire bodies in the shades you want

What’s on the Spool

1x Spool of Semperfli fly tying wire in your selected diameter and color

What It Is

Synthetic quills designed to create realistic, segmented bodies on dry flies and nymphs. Each quill has a darker edge that naturally forms ribbing when wrapped, giving your flies the classic quill body look without the fragility of natural quills.

Why It Matters

Quill bodies are one of the best ways to imitate the slim, segmented look of real insects. Perfect Quills make that effect easier and more durable than traditional natural quills.

• Built-in darker edge creates natural ribbing as you wrap
• Durable synthetic material that’s easier to work with than natural quills
• Creates slim, realistic insect bodies
• Long strands let you tie multiple flies from a single quill
  

How It Fishes

Perfect Quills are ideal for creating realistic bodies on mayfly dries and nymphs. The natural-looking segmentation closely imitates real insects, helping your fly look more convincing on the water and in the drift.

What It Is

Premium ringneck pheasant center tail feathers, 20 inches long, ideal for tying classic and modern nymph patterns.

Why It Matters

Ringneck pheasant tail is one of the most versatile and effective natural materials in fly tying. The fibers have a natural taper, mottled coloration, and subtle movement that trout recognize instantly.

• Long, straight center tail fibers for consistent tying
• Natural mottled color that imitates a wide range of insects
• Strong enough for bodies, tails, and wing cases
• A staple material for proven, confidence patterns

How It Fishes

Used in flies like Pheasant Tails, Frenchies, Shop Vacs, Gunslingers, soft hackles, and countless variations. Fish it anywhere trout feed on small nymphs—which is everywhere.

What It Is

A fine, synthetic dubbing with subtle metallic flash that adds life and light to nymphs, emergers, and small streamers.

Why It Matters

A little flash goes a long way underwater. Ice dubbing adds just enough sparkle to help flies stand out—without overpowering the pattern.

• Micro-fine fibers for a clean, natural build
• Subtle flash that reflects light like a real insect
• Easy to control in small amounts
• Great for bodies, thoraxes, and hotspots

How It Fishes

Use it sparingly to add depth and realism to flies that need a touch of life. Especially effective in clear water, low light, or when fish want a little extra glint.

What It Is

A lightweight, floating synthetic yarn used for parachute posts. Its loose, continuous fibers make it easy to tie in, trim, and shape however your pattern needs.

Why It Matters

Seeing your fly is half the battle with dry fly fishing. Poly yarn helps you track your fly on the surface while keeping it light enough to float naturally.

• Highly buoyant material that floats easily
• Bright, visible fibers help you track your fly
• Easy to tie in and trim to the size you want
• Great for parachute posts and dry fly wings

How It Fishes

Poly yarn is most commonly used for parachute posts and visible wings on dry flies. It helps anglers track their fly on the water while keeping the pattern light enough to sit naturally in the surface film.

What It Is

A lead-free weighted wire for adding weight to flies, getting them down faster in rivers and stillwater.

Why It Matters

Depth matters. This wire lets you add weight exactly where you want it so your fly sinks quickly and drifts naturally.

• Lead-free and non-toxic
• Easy to wrap and shape
• Great for building bodies and controlling profile

How It Fishes

Adds reliable weight without making flies bulky or hard to tie. Ideal for nymphs, scuds, shrimp patterns, and other subsurface flies.

Wire Amount

0.3mm (0.012") Wire - 5 meters

What It Is

A premium synthetic fiber for baitfish, streamer, and predator patterns—while also working great for wings on terrestrials and parachute flies.

Predator Fibres are long, lightweight, and move naturally in the water while still holding their shape. They create lifelike profiles in streamers and clean, visible wings on dry flies.

Each pack includes 20-inch fibers (folded to 10"), giving you plenty of material for a wide range of flies.

Why It Matters

Movement gets attention—but profile gets eaten.

Predator Fibres shed water easily, cast well, and keep their shape in the water. That means your flies won’t collapse, and they’ll maintain the baitfish silhouette fish are looking for.

• Natural movement with a clean, consistent profile
  
• Sheds water for easier casting
• Holds shape without clumping
• Versatile for streamers, predator flies, and dry fly wings
• Works great for parachute posts, underwings, and more

How It Fishes

On streamers, Predator Fibres pulse and breathe like a real baitfish while holding their profile on the pause.

On dry flies, they create durable, easy-to-see wings—especially on terrestrials and parachute patterns.

It’s a versatile material that helps your flies look more alive—and get eaten more often.

What It Is

An ultra-fine synthetic dubbing designed for tying slim, realistic bodies on small flies. Its soft 80-micron fibers create smooth, natural profiles that are perfect for midges, mayflies, and other dry fly patterns.

Why It Matters

Many aquatic insects have thin, tapered bodies. Superfine dubbing helps you match that profile so your flies look natural in the water.

• Ultra-fine fibers for slim, realistic bodies
• Soft dubbing that blends and twists easily on thread
• Breaks apart cleanly so you can control how much you use
• Can be blended with other dubbings to create custom colors and effects

How It Fishes

Superfine dubbing shines on dry fly bodies where a slim, natural profile matters. It’s especially effective for mayfly and midge patterns where a thin body helps your fly look and float like the real insect.

What It Is

Ultra-realistic silicone legs designed to add lifelike movement and profile to your flies.

Semperfli SiliLegs are made from flexible, translucent silicone that pulses and flows naturally in the water—perfect for imitating legs, antennae, and other moving parts of aquatic insects and baitfish.

Why It Matters

Movement is one of the biggest triggers for fish—and SiliLegs bring your flies to life.

Compared to traditional rubber legs, silicone offers better flexibility, translucency, and durability. That means more natural motion in the water and longer-lasting flies that hold up fish after fish.

• Ultra-flexible silicone for lifelike movement
• Translucent material creates a more natural look underwater
• More durable than standard rubber legs
• Barred, glitter, reflective, and glow options for added attraction
• ~100 strands per pack for great value

How It Fishes

SiliLegs create constant, subtle movement—even when your fly is standing still.

On nymphs and small patterns, they imitate the natural motion of insect legs drifting in the current. On streamers and larger flies, they add bulk, action, and visual triggers that fish key in on.

Whether you’re tying stoneflies, hoppers, streamers, or bass bugs, SiliLegs help your flies look more alive—and that leads to more eats.

What It Is

A premium synthetic flash material designed to add lifelike shimmer and movement to your flies. SemperFlash features long, ultra-fine strands that reflect light naturally in the water—perfect for imitating baitfish scales, insect sheen, or subtle flash in nymphs and streamers.

Each pack includes full-length 10-inch strands (not center-tied), so you get maximum usable material for everything from small trout flies to large predator patterns.

Why It Matters

Flash can be the difference between getting ignored… and getting eaten.

SemperFlash gives you clean, consistent flash without the waste and limitations of traditional tinsel. Because the strands are tied at the top instead of the middle, you can use the full length—making it more versatile, efficient, and better for larger patterns.

• Full 10" strands = no wasted material (unlike center-tied flash)
  
• 300 strands per pack for long-lasting value
• Adds lifelike flash and movement without bulk
• Works for everything from tiny midges to large streamers and saltwater flies

How It Fishes

SemperFlash adds just enough flash to get a fish’s attention—without overdoing it.

Use a few strands in nymphs or small flies to imitate natural gas bubbles or subtle insect sheen. Or bulk it up in streamers and baitfish patterns to create flash and movement that triggers aggressive strikes.

From technical trout water to chasing big predators, this is one of those materials that simply makes your flies more effective.

What's in the Pack

1x hand-selected Nature's Spirit deer hair patch (2" x 3") in your chosen color

What It Is

Hand-selected deer body hair from Nature's Spirit. Clean tips, minimal underfur, hollow fibers that flare when you compress them. If you tie a little bit of everything, this is the patch that stays on the bench.

Best Uses

• Flared wings and collars: caddis, hoppers, stoneflies, attractor dries
• Stacked wings: Stimulators, Chubbies, Humpies, and other high-floating searchers
• Spun and packed heads: muddlers, sculpins, bass bugs, diver heads
• Trimmed bodies: anywhere you want buoyant, shapeable bulk

Why It Matters

Cheap deer hair is a coin flip. You get broken tips, curly fibers, and a hide full of underfur you spend more time combing out than tying with. Nature's Spirit sorts every patch by hand, so what shows up is what you expected: consistent fiber length, tips that stack evenly, and hollow butts that flare predictably under thread tension. Deer hair is unforgiving material to learn on, and most of what makes it frustrating is the hair, not the tyer.

How It Fishes

Hollow hair traps air, and trapped air floats. That's what makes a spun deer hair head ride high through pocket water and a flared caddis wing sit up in the film after a dozen fish. It also gives you a silhouette that holds its shape wet — bulk without weight, which is exactly what a hopper or a muddler needs to look alive.

What It Is

Flat, mirror-finish tinsel from Semperfli for bodies, ribbing, and lateral lines. Built with a slightly thicker material than most flat tinsels, so it wraps flat and holds up instead of splitting halfway down the shank. Three widths cover everything from tiny midges to big streamers.

Best Uses

• Small – 1/69" (0.4mm): small nymphs, midges, perdigons
• Medium – 1/32" (0.8mm): standard nymphs, small streamers
• Large – 1/16" (1.5mm): big nymphs, streamers

Why It Matters

The thicker material resists splitting and stands up to teeth, and it wraps genuinely flat instead of rolling into a rope halfway through a body. Under water it reflects light like wet baitfish scales or the gas bubble on an emerger. The spool is level-wound, so it feeds clean and stays untangled between sessions.

How It Fishes

Flash is a volume knob, not a switch. In stained water or low light, a full mirror body turns a nymph or streamer into something fish find from feet away. In clear, pressured water, three or four open turns over a dubbed body gives you segmentation and just a hint of shine.
