EP Crustaceous Brush W/Micro Legs 1 in. Wide

Enrico Puglisi EP Crustaceous Brush W/Micro Legs 1 in. Wide is a ready synthetic-fibre brush with micro legs held in a wire core. The 1-inch width suits compact crab, shrimp and other bottom-crawling invertebrate patterns. It can be used for both freshwater and saltwater flies when a consistent body and quick construction are required.

Construction and use

Secure the beginning of the brush to the hook shank and wrap it under even tension. After each turn, sweep the fibres and micro legs backward, keeping them on the outside of the body. Trim excess material to match the intended profile, but avoid compressing the wraps so tightly that the fibres and legs lose their movement.

• Construction: ready synthetic-fibre brush in a wire core, with micro legs.
• Width: 1 inch, as stated in the product name.
• Applications: crab, shrimp and other bottom-dwelling invertebrate imitations.
• Tying method: secure the core, wrap it along the shank, sweep the elements back and trim the outline.
