Lagartun X-Strong Oval Tinsel

Lagartun French Oval Tinsel X-Strong is a premium metal-wrapped wire engineered with a heavy-duty polyester core that delivers unparalleled durability and flexibility, preventing the material from snapping or unraveling under heavy tension. This tarnish-resistant tinsel features a protective varnish coating that preserves its brilliant metallic luster over time, making it an essential component for crafting precise ribs, tags, and butts on classic Atlantic salmon, steelhead, and trout flies. Designed to lie completely flat and smooth against the hook shank, it eliminates bulk and resists the destructive teeth of predatory fish, ensuring that delicate streamer and nymph bodies retain their pristine appearance through heavy water use.
