Troutline Grey Squirrel Tanned Skin piece

Our Troutline Grey Squirrel Tanned Skin offers a beautifully soft, naturally-colored fur patch, perfect for fly tying enthusiasts. Carefully selected from the back section of Russian Grey Squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris), this premium patch combines the finest guard hair with soft underfur, providing unmatched versatility for various fly patterns. Unlike red belly squirrel fur, grey squirrel fur has longer, finer guard hairs, making it an excellent choice for tying tails, legs, and creating lifelike body details.

Why Choose Grey Squirrel Fur for Fly Tying?

Grey squirrel fur provides a unique blend of softness and structure, ideal for both beginners and advanced tiers. The long, fine guard hairs bring a natural look and subtle movement to tails and legs on nymphs, while the soft underfur creates smooth, compact bodies on dry flies and duns. For those who love creating custom dubbing, this fur can be trimmed or cut into V-strips for mini zonkers, wings, and collars.

Key Uses and Features:

• Versatile Application: Use it for wet flies, dry flies, nymphs, and mini zonkers.
• Perfect for Dubbing and Hackle: The fine underfur is ideal for dubbing, while the guard hairs make beautiful legs and tails.
• V-Strips for Mini Zonkers: The patch can be cut into V-strips, offering realistic winging material for small flies.
• Soft and Durable: Each piece is super soft and tanned, ensuring durability and ease of use.
• Approximate Size: 4x4 cm per piece – a convenient size for multiple uses.
