Semperfli Synthetic Peacock Herl
Designed to imitate natural peacock herl, Semperfli Synthetic Peacock Herl is a fritz/chenille which contains all the iridescence that you find in the natural material, accents of blue, green, copper and gold highlight and change in different lighting conditions just like the real thing.
- Far stronger than natural peacock herl
- Robust enough to make a fly with an exposed area like a Klinkhammer thorax last longer before it is destroyed
- The length is not limited to the length like natural herl
- 3 different color variants which can be used alone or weaved together to enhance effect
- Micro – fibers are 1mm
- X-Small – fibers are 2mm
- Small – fibers are 4mm
- 6 meters per pack

Is the synthetic herl durable enough for long-term use in fishing flies?
Yes, it is robust enough to last longer in flies with exposed areas, such as a Klinkhammer thorax, before being damaged.

The synthetic herl looks exactly like real peacock herl with the same iridescent effect. It holds up well in my flies and doesn’t break easily even after repeated use. The colors shift beautifully under different lights, which makes the flies more realistic.
Oliver Wilkins –
I’ve used this material in several fly designs and it’s much stronger than natural herl. The 3 color options allow me to create more dynamic patterns. The 6-meter pack is sufficient for multiple projects.
James Black –
The iridescence is very convincing and the fibers are durable. I mixed the small and micro fibers to get a balanced texture. It’s a bit more expensive than natural herl, but the performance justifies the cost.
Adrian Murray –
Great for making long-lasting flies. The fibers don’t fray easily and maintain their shape. I especially like the color variation options which help in creating more natural-looking patterns.
