SYBAI New Sparkle Hair – Blue Black

Product detailed description

SYBAI New Sparkle Hair – Blue Black is a synthetic flash material for flies and streamers. The blue-black version suits darker baitfish backs and coloured details in a wing. A few fibres can complement a light body, while a larger bunch creates a more prominent part of the streamer.

The New Sparkle Hair range combines flat and twisted tinsel fibres, with different reflective effects depending on the colour. The material is soft and mobile, making it useful where the flash should move with the rest of the dressing. It is intended for both freshwater and saltwater flies. The length and amount you tie in determine the size of the finished pattern.

Working with this colour: For a baitfish pattern, try Blue Black above light fur or a pearlescent material, tying the darker back and lighter underside separately. Loosen the bunch, align the required length and tie in a small portion first. You can gradually add more material. When trimming, move the tying thread out of the path of the blades and leave room around the eye to finish the knot.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

What exactly is New Sparkle Hair?

It is a synthetic flash material made from flat and twisted tinsel fibres. Use it for fly wings, tails and bodies, or as a reflective addition to other tying materials.

How much material is in one pack?

One ordered item means one pack in the selected colour, containing 600 strands measuring 350 mm. The number of flies you can tie depends on the size of the patterns and how much material each requires.

Can I use it for pike and saltwater streamers?

Yes. The material is intended for freshwater and saltwater patterns. Add it to larger streamers or shorten it for smaller flies. Select the hook, construction and other components to suit the intended fishing.

How can I use the Blue Black colour?

For a baitfish pattern, try Blue Black above light fur or a pearlescent material, tying the darker back and lighter underside separately.

Can I combine it with fur or other synthetics?

Yes. Start by placing a small portion beside your base material to judge the colour and amount of flash. A smaller addition leaves more of the fur or other synthetic material visible.

How should I choose the length and amount?

Work from the size of the intended pattern. Start with a small bunch, check the length against the hook and then tie it in securely. Trim the ends with accurate tying scissors.
