Troutline Premium American Opossum Zonker Strips are carefully selected and precision-cut from high-quality tanned North American opossum hides. The fur is exceptionally soft, dense, and naturally tapered, offering superior mobility and lifelike action in the water.
Thanks to its perfect balance between fine underfur and longer guard hairs, American opossum creates a subtle, breathing motion that brings streamers, leeches, sculpins, and baitfish imitations to life. The hair fibers do not absorb water easily, allowing flies to remain light and easy to cast all day long.
