Soldarini Egg’s Chenille 5 mm – fine chenille for precise fly tying
Everything you love about the larger version – just in a more compact form.
Soldarini Egg’s Chenille 5 mm is the perfect choice for tying smaller flies where you want to keep the attractive “egg-fly” look but with a subtler profile. Thanks to its dense, soft fibers and thin core, it allows for precise shaping and smooth transitions between the body and the hook. In the water, the material comes to life – it gently moves and reflects light with a natural, non-glossy finish.
