When Semperfli looks closely at insects and invertebrates, they are not just one colour, but a range of mixed colors across their body. So why does Sem. often use single color dubbing to imitate nature? That was the big question the Semperfli Pro Team was asking. As a result they developed Dirty Bug Yarn Black which is part of their Dirty Bug Yarn fly tying range. They call it Dirty Bug Yarn because it has the multiple colors found on insects and invertebrates, whether you are tying shrimps, baetis nymphs, caddis nymphs it does not matter. Sem. decided to blend multiple color materials into Dirty Bug Yarn Black creating a 2 ply yarn so that you can tie larger nymphs or split the 2 ply yarn for smaller flies. Dirty Bug Yarn Black is capable of being used as what we call a dubbing rope, simply tie in Dirty Bug Yarn Black and wrap around the hook or you can break apart the Dirty Bug Yarn Black to make dubbing!. When we designed Dirty Bug Yarn we wanted a highly fibrous material that would look really ‘buggy’ and look natural. Dirty Bug Yarn Black is exactly that, simple to use,...
This Micro Fritz is ideal for small fly bodies and micro thoraxes from lures to nymphs.
With just the right amount of fritz for small flies sizes 16 to 20.

Weighted flies often help us get quickly to where fish are, especially in fast currents.
Semperfli’s Lead Free Heavy Weighted Wire is easy to wrap around the hook in one or more layers for example to build up a shrimp body profile. Non toxic Lead Free Heavy Weighted Wire is much better for the environment unlike pure lead wires which has been banned in many countries for fishing.
Lead Free Heavy Weighted Wire has a density of about 60% that of lead so is still heavy enough to get your fly to where you want to fish on rivers and stillwaters but still perfectly mouldable for shape to get the profile you want.

Fly tying wires are used in all disciplines of fly fishing, however the market offerings were inconsistent with amount per spool, colours and often they would go rusty after several uses. Due to this we turned our focus onto wires and improving the fly tyers experience.
