Hemingway's Hopper Tube Bodies
Tie lightweight, extended-body hopper patterns with a softer, more natural profile.
These pre-made tube bodies are made from long, high-quality dubbing fibers formed into a tapered, hollow body that closely resembles the shape of a natural grasshopper. The result is a realistic silhouette with a softer texture than traditional foam bodies, making them a great choice for anglers who prefer a more natural-looking terrestrial pattern.
Because the bodies are hollow, they trap air and provide excellent buoyancy, helping your flies ride naturally on the surface throughout the drift. They're lightweight, flexible, and easy to tie, making it simple to create realistic hopper patterns without spending time shaping and dubbing extended bodies by hand.
They're equally at home in classic hopper patterns or more creative terrestrial designs where a lightweight extended body makes all the difference.
Each pack contains 10 Tube Body Hoppers, available in two proven color combinations:
- Tan / Orange
- Tan / Yellow
