Magic Carpet
Magic Carpet is similar to Craft Fur – it’s a better version of it.
- The main advantage is its much longer hair, around 12 cm.
- It is the ultimate fly tying material for pike flies, often used for sea-trout flies, and also for any other big fresh- and salt-water patterns.
- Very long and fine hair that does not absorb water and moves incredibly when wet.

Dylan Fisher –
I’ve been using Magic Carpet for my pike fly patterns and it’s a game-changer. The hair is long and fine, and it doesn’t absorb water like other materials. It moves naturally when wet, which makes the flies look more realistic in the water.
Simon Baker –
Compared to Craft Fur, this material is much longer and more consistent. I use it for sea-trout patterns and the results are excellent. The 14×20 cm patches provide enough material for multiple flies.
Anthony Nolan –
The hair is very fine and stays dry even in humid conditions. I’ve tied several large saltwater patterns and they hold their shape well during casting.
