Iris Flash: Long, striated, iridescent fibers for ultra-attractive fly patterns
Iris Flash is a material composed of long, 20cm synthetic fibers, characterized by a unique striated appearance and highly luminous iridescent reflections. Designed for tying streamer wings for sea, lake, or river fishing, these fibers offer exceptional attractiveness, high mobility, and rare versatility. They are suitable for both large predator streamers and finer patterns, such as midges and perdigones.
The primary advantage of Iris Flash lies in its striated appearance. This distinctive texture enhances natural reflections by creating micro-surfaces that capture and reflect light. This subtle yet highly effective sheen perfectly imitates the scales of small baitfish, significantly increasing the realism of fly patterns.
The fibers are also highly iridescent, offering a range of multicolored reflections visible from different angles. This shimmer is a powerful visual signal that immediately attracts predators such as pike, zander, sea bass, perch, and largemouth bass.
At 20 cm long, the fibers are perfectly suited for saltwater and pike streamers. They allow for the creation of long, supple, and well-shaped wings. Their lightweight structure gives them excellent movement: even with minimal action, the fibers undulate, vibrate, and pulse, giving the fly a striking realism.
Iris Flash also stands out for its remarkable versatility. In addition to streamers, it can be used for:
- chironomid bodies,
- modernized perdigones,
- attractive nymphs,
bright reinforcements in the wings or backs of various patterns.
Its fineness, combined with its brilliance, allows for the creation of luminous segmented bodies or discreet yet highly attractive decorative touches. Finally, Iris Flash is strong and durable, withstanding saltwater, repeated handling, and fish attacks while maintaining its shine and movement.
In short, Iris Flash is a long, shiny, ribbed, and versatile material, ideal for creating predator streamers and ultra-attractive, delicate rigs.
