Sybai Web Flash Foil
Sybai Web Flash Foil UV Purple is a very thin, cuttable film with a reflective surface. Use it to make matched wings, small wing-case details or accents on the backs of nymph bodies. The purple colour responds to ultraviolet light and creates a reflective accent whose appearance changes with the lighting.
Construction and use
Cut a matched wing pair from the film, or prepare a small, even piece for a wing case or nymph body back. Position the material on the hook shank and secure it with a few controlled thread wraps rather than excessive pressure, which can damage such a thin film. Check that both wings have the same outline, angle and alignment before trimming the waste. Careful matching and neat trimming also reduce the risk of wide or uneven wings twisting the leader during casting.
