Wapsi Palmer Chenille

Elevate your fly tying with a versatile, easy-to-use body material designed to add lifelike texture and subtle flash to a wide range of patterns. Built with long, durable fibers, it creates a natural, buggy profile that’s perfect for streamers, woolly buggers, nymphs, and other attractor flies. The fibers palmer smoothly and evenly, allowing you to build full, flashy bodies or refined accents with excellent control at the vise.

From slim ribbed bodies to plush, high-profile silhouettes, it delivers consistent results that help your flies move and shimmer naturally in the current. It’s a proven staple for fly tyers seeking reliable quality, quick tie-in, and clean, professional finishes.

Key benefits include:

• Long, resilient fibers for a natural, buggy look and enhanced movement
• Even, smooth wrapping for fast, clean bodies and collars
• Versatile use across streamers, buggers, nymphs, and attractor patterns
• Subtle to high-visibility flash options for varied water and light conditions
• Consistent quality that reduces waste and speeds up tying

Whether you’re building bold, attention-grabbing profiles or adding just the right touch of shimmer, this palmer-style chenille makes it easy to achieve professional results. It’s an essential body material for both beginner and advanced tyers who want durability, consistency, and on-the-water performance in every wrap.
