Hareline Barred Magnum Rabbit Strips

Hareline Barred Magnum Rabbit Strips are broad rabbit-fur strips cut lengthwise for building large profiles. The contrasting Barred pattern adds definition to wings, tails and backs. The Magnum format provides a wide strip for substantial freshwater streamers and saltwater flies, particularly on larger hooks.

Construction and use

Match the strip width to the hook size and intended profile. Before tying in, part the fur to expose the skin and remove excess underfur from the section to be secured. Lay the strip along the shank, arrange the fur in the required direction, and secure it through the skin in one or several tying points while controlling thread tension.
