Hareline Baitfish Emulator Flash

Create fast, realistic baitfish and streamer patterns with this versatile, easy-winding synthetic blend. A beautiful mix of differently textured thin mylars with a specially treated edge allows you to build lifelike bodies and profiles in seconds—simply wind two or three turns, tie off, add Holographic Eyes, finish with Clear Cure Goo, and you’ve got a durable, fish-catching fly.

Designed for fly tying efficiency and performance, this material delivers the perfect balance of flash, translucence, and movement to emulate natural forage. The thin fibers lay smoothly when wrapped, stack cleanly, and resist fraying, making it ideal for baitfish bodies, lateral lines, wing cases, and accent ribs on streamers, nymphs, and saltwater patterns. The treated edge ensures neat, uniform wraps with minimal bulk, while the reflective mylar mix triggers aggressive strikes in clear or stained water.

Whether you’re tying for trout, bass, or saltwater predators, this synthetic flash material speeds up your bench time and elevates your results. It pairs seamlessly with adhesives and resin finishes, holds shape in current, and maintains a natural shimmer that mimics scales. From quick guide flies to showcase patterns, expect consistent build quality, exceptional durability, and eye-catching action.

Key benefits:

• Mixed thin mylars with a specially treated edge for clean, easy winding
• Builds realistic baitfish bodies in just a few wraps

If you’re looking to tie more effective baitfish imitations with less effort, this emulator-style flash is a reliable, high-impact choice for modern fly tiers.
