More of a thicker thread or body quill then a braid, this material is perfect for so many flies from spey to tubes to perdigons, this braid can do it all! Also known as Body Glint, Glint Thread, Body Quill or Micro Glint.

My absolute favorite for Perdigon flies and on fly bodies on size 12 and up flies. The colors really help make the fly very unique and attractive. Can also be used as ribbing instead of using wire.
