Fly Tying with Natural Shade Tapered Brushes

Northeast Ohio Angling’s Matt Redmond walks us through using Just Add H20’s Natural Shade Tapered Brushes when tying Game Changers. This material amounts to a cheat code for getting a naturally proportioned taper, which is so crucial to our flies. These brushes, tapered from two and a half inches down to half an inch, can do the job of three separate, uniform-length brushes, creating a fully tapered body with little or no trimming required. They were specifically designed to allow tiers to create a full Game Changer with a single brush without trimming each successive segment to length. Incorporating high-quality synthetic products like Natural Shade Tapered Brushes can improve both our tying and fishing experience.
