Tanuki - Finn Racoon Light Chartreuse


 Tanuki Finn Raccoon has been a "Scandinavian secret" for many years and is one of the finest tube and hook fly materials a fly tier can possess. It is incredibly versatile and is now widely used for tying flies for salmon, sea trout, rainbow trout, bass, and pike. When the guard hairs and undercoat are tied together, it makes one of the best fly-tying materials available today. The hairs tie with minimal bulk, are highly mobile, and have a rippling action in the water. The guard hairs average 50 to 100 mm in length and are straighter and less flexible than the undercoat. The undercoat alone is very soft and fluffy and moves like a marabou stork in the water. With an average length of 25 to 75 mm, it is excellent as tail material on streamers and trout lures or as a lining on flies. Being highly absorbent, it helps your fly sink quickly.
