Textreme 15mm Gummy Chenille
The new 15mm Textreme Gummy Chenille is made with shiny elastic that gives it a rubbery feel, amplified by a special silicone treatment during dyeing. The elastic hairs are tied to the base with a special synthetic fiber, providing proper stability during tying. If tied like squirmy worms, we recommend slightly gluing the ends to increase durability. The 15mm size is ideal for blob flies and streamer bodies.

The 15mm chenille works perfectly for my blob flies. The rubbery texture and shine make the flies look natural. I found the synthetic fiber binding very stable during tying. Slightly gluing the ends helped prevent fraying when used in long casts.

Great quality for the price. The silicone treatment gives a smooth, shiny finish. I used it for streamer bodies and it holds shape well. A little glue on the ends made it more reliable in windy conditions.

Highly satisfied with the texture and durability. The 15mm size fits perfectly in my fly patterns. The elastic feels strong and doesn’t stretch too much, which is ideal for realistic movement.
