Celtic Blob Company - Micro Synthetic Herl (MSH)
As avian flu continues to impact natural feather availability, we've developed a high-performance synthetic alternative that replicates the delicate finesse of naturally occurring herls.
-
Ultra-Fine Diameter: Available in standard form, Peacock, and metallic variations for versatile tying.
-
Color Range: Offered in natural, non-fluorescent tones — with select fluorescent "hot spot" colours now available due to popular demand.
-
Additive-Specific Shades: Not all additives suit every colour, so the range varies accordingly.
🎣 Performance Highlights:
-
Responds beautifully to tension, making it easy to sculpt lifelike nymph silhouettes.

Eliminates the frustration of snapping at critical moments.
-
Unrestricted by length and highly resistant to wear — ideal for flies facing sharp teeth and tough conditions.
