Big Rainfall? Sick of Getting Skunked? Pick Up Some Squirmy Worm Material and Tie Yourself a Winner!
The Original Squirmy material is the key component in a number of highly effective flies, including the Squirmy and Squirminator patterns. This is the proper original material that is super mobile, durable, and has no ‘curl’ like other copies.
When using this material to make your own patterns, do not use any form of glue or varnish that contains a solvent, as it will quickly degrade the material. We recommend using Fulling Mill Glass UV Resin for finishing all patterns that incorporate Squirmy material.

This material is exactly as described. It moves naturally in the water and holds up well in heavy rain. I’ve used it in several patterns and the results are consistent and effective.
Owen Ferguson –
Great quality and flexibility. The material doesn’t curl or stiffen like others I’ve tried. Works perfectly with my Squirmy pattern. Highly recommend.
Wendy Wilkins –
Solid performance in the field. A bit more expensive than alternatives, but the durability and mobility justify the cost. Used it in a shrimp pattern and it worked well.

The original Squirmy material is a game-changer. No curl, no breakage, and it responds naturally to water flow. I’ve used it in multiple patterns and it’s become a staple.
