Stewart Ball –
Used this chenille to tie Flexo Crabs for a recent saltwater trip. The texture is soft but strong, and the tan colour blends well with natural crustaceans. The legs hold shape well and the wrap is smooth and consistent.
Jason Nash –
Great for small crab patterns. The nylon core keeps it from fraying, and it’s easy to work with when tying legs and bodies. Works well in both freshwater and saltwater conditions.
Austin Young –
Satisfactory for medium-sized crabs. A bit stiff when first pulled, but settles into a good shape after wrapping. The colour matches well with natural baits.

Tied several crab patterns using this chenille. It’s durable, soft, and holds up well in the water. Perfect for creating lifelike crab legs without adding bulk.
