Veniard Turkey Biot provides long and durable natural fibres used worldwide for creating beautifully segmented bodies on nymphs, emergers and dry flies. Turkey biots are wider and more flexible than goose biots, making them easier to wrap on the hook and suitable for both slim and slightly bulky body profiles.
Because this is a natural product, and not a premium-grade selection, the biots can present small imperfections caused during the cleaning and dyeing process. These may include:
slight variations in length and width
occasional broken or shortened biots
minor surface marks or edge irregularities
These characteristics are normal for commercial-grade turkey biot and do not affect its usability for most fly patterns. Many tiers prefer turkey biots specifically for their flexibility and for the natural texture they add to nymphs, buzzers and emergers.
Recommended uses:
Nymph bodies (Pheasant Tail variants, stoneflies, mayfly nymphs)
