Description

DESCRIPTION American Opossum combines fine, soft underfur with long, shiny guard hairs for a wing that tapers naturally and reflects light brilliantly. The medium-broad profile gives your zonkers a lively, flowing motion that salmon and sea trout can’t resist. Ideal for both hooked flies and tubes, in sizes from medium to large, this versatile material opens up endless possibilities for creative tying.
