Wild Boar Hair is a stiff, naturally tapered fiber ideal for mayfly tails, beetle legs, and antennae. Soak or wrap for bodies on midges. An extremely versatile material.
Once you’ve used Wild Boar Hair for legs on Beetles, Ants and small Crickets, you’ll be hooked. When bent to a sharp angle, the hair will take a set, allowing you to shape the legs into a realistic shape. Unlike nylon filaments, Wild Boar Hair will add flotation to the fly and remain flexible after a fish takes your fly. Make great split mayfly tails. Awesome for beetle legs. Adds flotation. Easy to use.
