Arctic Fisherman Finn Raccoon Chartreuse

Description

Arctic Fisherman Finn Raccoon is real, certified Finn Raccoon from Northern Finland, the best of full cold weather fur the ultimate in quality, ready to be swung across the river toward a waiting aggressive steelhead. This highly prized fur has what every steelheader needs in a soft fur with lots of movement as it glides through the water.

Finn Raccoon is a must have fly tying material and one of the best, and most versatile, materials for tying bass, saltwater, and trout flies too. The properties of Finn Raccoon hair enable the fly tyer to meet many needs. The underfur is very soft and fluffy and comes alive in the water much like marabou. Averaging 1 to 3 in length it is excellent as a tailing material on streamers or as a dubbing on trout flies. Being highly absorbent it helps your fly sink quickly.

Guard hairs average 2 to 4 in length and are straighter and less flexible than than the underfur. They are excellent as a tailing or winging material on trout streamers, salmon and steelhead flies. When the guard hairs and underfur are tied in together it makes one of the sexiest fly tying materials available. The hair ties in with minimal bulk yet has a very full appearance. At the same time maintaining an undulating action in the water.

The tan is eagerly sought for bonefish Crazy Charlie style flies.

Arctic Fisherman Finn Raccoon comes in one inch square patches that off plenty of hair due to the fullness of the animals coat.
