Tying materials from Wapsi are popular with beginners and tying professionals alike. Already since 1945, Wapsi from Iowa has been the first choice in the USA for a wide range of high-quality materials for all kinds of flies. We especially like to use Wapsi's natural products at the tying table - the Muskrat Back is no special exception.
Wapsi Muskrat Back is a universal natural product that should not be missing on any tying table. This fur consists of a combination of soft underwool and single, longer hairs that are characterised by a fine structure. The wool has the ideal colouring for a classic Adams and makes a great dubbing that is easy to work with. The fur from the muskrat's back can also be used for small zonkers or modern jig streamers, which are becoming increasingly popular in Euro nymphing. You can use either just the hair or a whole strip of fur. All in all a very versatile product in best Wapsi quality for dry flies, nymphs and streamers!
Founded in Iowa in 1945, Wapsi is one of the most traditional companies for fly tying materials. The beginnings were small and local, but nowadays, this family-owned business offers almost everything a fly tyer's heart desires. From various feathers and furs to rubber legs, wires, and much more. A special feature is also the practical solutions for storing tying threads and the well-thought-out accessories. Despite the high quality of materials, Wapsi has remained true to itself and offers all products at extremely fair prices.
