Description

The EP® Weed Guard is a 3" piece of premium monofilament designed to add weed guards to your fly patterns with ease. Unlike traditional mono sold on spools—which needs to be straightened before use—EP® Weed Guards come ready to tie: perfectly straight and cut to the ideal length. Strong, clear, and flexible, this material keeps your flies weed-free without interfering with hook-ups. It’s also great for custom applications like crafting epoxy eyes or reinforcing fly bodies. Simple, versatile, and effective—this is the same weed guard we use on all our flies. Size: .020 / 16lb or .022 / 20lb Length: 3" 100 Pieces Per Pack

Field Notes

Use this monofilament weed-guard material when tying or customizing fly patterns that need protection from grass, weeds, or debris. Cut to the desired length and position it so it blocks vegetation while still allowing the hook to penetrate on the strike.

Pros

  • Flexible and clear for subtle presentation
  • Helps keep flies weed-free without blocking hook-ups

Cons

  • Requires tying/crafting to install on your fly
  • Not a complete fly—only the weed-guard material
