For some years Lateral Scale has been used as a very durable and versatile tying material for streamers but also as a wing casing for nymphs. The mini version of the highly reflective synthetic material is much narrower and thus opens up many new possibilities: For example, as a highlight for salmon flies or for imitating the sidelines on small baitfish patterns for Sea Trout, Perch, Asp and more. The fine wrinkles in the synthetic fiber reflect light even in dark conditions, drawing a lot of attention in the water. Hedron’s Lateral Scale should be tied sparse because it doesn’t take much to get a lot of light reflection - less is more here!
