Wapsi Ostrich Marabou

Product information "Wapsi Ostrich Marabou"

Wapsi Ostrich Marabou is a very universal tying material applicable to numerous fly types and patterns. Ostrich is an extremely popular material due to its vivid, pulsating underwater action. Ostrich marabou can typically be foud in the form of wings and hackles on ‘Spey style’ salmon flies and ‘String Leeches’ which are essential patterns in any steelhead or salmon fly box. Furthermore, Ostrich is great for tying pike streamers and nymphs. Delicate imitations of insect gills and fine gammarus legs can easily and very realistically be tied from these ostrich feathers.

Wapsi Ostrich Marabou is a quality material featuring very flexible stems for easy wrapping and palmering with breakage.
