Trout Line Micro Stretch Rib is a modern, translucent elastic material designed for tying realistic nymphs and micro-patterns. With a diameter of approx. 0.5 mm, it stretches easily, wraps smoothly and gives excellent segmentation on bodies without adding bulk.
Because the material is round and glass-like, it produces a subtle shine and semi-transparent effect that works extremely well in both clear and coloured water. It is ideal for ribbing, creating full bodies, or building slender profiles on small hooks.
You tie nymphs like caddis, mayflies, stonflies in all sizes because this stretchy ribbing material gives you full control over thickness, tension and colour intensity.
