The Fino Skin cuts cleanly and holds well in the fly. It looks very natural on shrimp patterns and adds a realistic texture. Easy to work with and fits perfectly in small sizes.

Great for tying small nymphs and wing cases. The transparency and elasticity make it stand out. Paper backing helps with precision cutting.

Used it on a few crayfish patterns and the result was very convincing. The material stretches naturally and doesn’t tear during tying.
