The guard hairs move beautifully in the water, making my streamers look much more natural. I’ve used it on several saltwater patterns and noticed a significant improvement in fish strikes.

Works well with my montanas. The movement is noticeable and the color retention is good, though it may wear slightly after repeated use.
