An essential material for all fly tiers,
medium copper wire
is ideal for tying nymphs or wet flies. The famous "pheasant tail" is a nymph whose effectiveness is due to the combination of pheasant tail feather fibers and copper wire. The bright orange reflections of the copper give the nymphs formidable effectiveness. Simply attach theJMC medium copper wire
with your tying thread, create the fly's body using wrapped feather fibers, dubbing, or tying thread, then rib the body with spaced turns, and your fly will be stronger and more attractive. It is also possible to use theJMC medium copper wire
to create the bodies, heads, or thoraxes of nymphs or wet flies. Wrapped in tightly spaced coils, the copper can be varnished or coated with UV resin to obtain a shiny fly that will arouse the curiosity of fish.
