FAQs
What is Semperfli Dry Fly Polyyarn made of?
It is a bonded, floating poly yarn.
Can I use this for nymph patterns?
While primarily designed for dry flies, it can be used in limited capacity for emerging nymphs.
How do I store the polyyarn?
Store the polyyarn in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
Is it difficult to work with?
No, it functions like dubbing on a rope, making it easy to handle.
How do I prevent the polyyarn from unraveling?
Apply a small amount of head cement or use a thread that grabs the fibers well.

Troubleshooting
Polyyarn is unraveling during tying.
Apply a small amount of head cement or a similar adhesive to the tie-in point to secure the fibers.
Fly is not floating properly.
Ensure the polyyarn is not overly compressed during the tying process. Use a dubbing loop or other techniques to create a more buoyant body.
