What types of flies are best made with Predator Fibres?

Predator Fibres are best used for baitfish patterns, but they can be used for any fly where a flowing, water-shedding material is beneficial.

Troubleshooting

Fibres appear tangled or matted.

Gently comb the fibres with a fine-toothed comb to separate them before use. Store the fibres properly to prevent tangling.

Difficulty in casting due to the fly pattern.

Ensure you are using an appropriate hook size and weight for the fibre pattern. Adjust the amount of material used to create a more streamlined profile for easier casting. Check your casting technique.

Pros and Cons

  • Excellent casting characteristics.
  • Available in a wide range of colors to match various baitfish.
  • Durable and long-lasting.
  • Provides realistic movement in the water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

No specific setup is required. The fibres are ready to use directly from the package. Simply select the desired color and begin tying your fly patterns. Ensure you are using appropriate fly-tying tools, such as a vise, bobbins, and tying thread.

To care for the fibres, store them in a dry place away from direct sunlight. After use, rinse any fibres that have been exposed to saltwater to prevent salt buildup, and allow them to air dry. Proper storage and care will prolong the life of the fibres and maintain their effectiveness.
