The beetle bodies are very detailed and realistic. The 3.5mm foam gives great floatation, which helps the fly stay on top of the water. Easy to cut and tie on. Works well with peacock herl for a natural look.
Stewart Hunter –
I’ve used these in several fishing trips and they hold up well in the water. The foam is durable and doesn’t break easily. Slightly harder to cut than expected, but still manageable.

Perfect for tying realistic beetles. The detail is impressive and the floatation keeps the fly stable. I recommend them for both beginners and experienced anglers.
