Realistic Mayfly Nymph Body with Tails

Hemingway’s Realistic Mayfly Nymph Body with Tails

For tying realistic extended body mayfly nymphs, these bodies are an absolute must-have, as they are very life-like and super easy to use. These parts are great imitations of a natural extended body of a mayfly nymph as they mimic the shape, size, color, and proportions of a real insect. The body extends to tails so you get two body parts in one piece! This premium fly tying material is molded out of soft rubber that is flexible and light but also very durable. It is protected from the elements and ready for action – waterproof and UV resistant. As these parts are already shaped, sized, and colored, using this material significantly cuts the tying time – you get authentic-looking mayfly nymphs in a few easy steps.

Ideally complemented with our Realistic Mayfly Nymph Buds & Back and Realistic Mayfly Nymph Legs. See all products from the Mayfly Nymph collection. Come with 10 pieces per pack, with a choice of three sizes (Small, Medium, and Large) and 7 colors: Clear, Yellow, Golden Yellow, Black, Clear Black, Clear Brown & Brown.

Get impressive-looking flies that not just look real but are favored by fish!
