I was disappointed with colour of this wire as in my opinion it was more of a copper colour than the light gold as described. Apart from the colour the wire seems fine

The best by miles

The best tied buzzers I have ever seen, by a wide margin. Bought in lime green also. Really impressed and am buying more!

UNI FLEXX FLOSS

Problem with other makes of Flex or Flexi Floss is that they are sold in cut lengths. UNI FLEXX FLOSS is packaged on a spool of 15 yards, so I can cut long lengths to suit the flies I'm tying. The Red Flexx Floss is just the right colour I was looking for. Great product, good price and speedy delivery from the essentially, thanks guys😊

Nicely tied slim nymphs on strong, good quality hooks. Really good general 'buggy' look. Recommended.
