Tubing & Body Materials

Tubing and body materials help fly tyers create realistic profiles, segmented bodies, translucent effects, and durable fly patterns that consistently produce fish. From shrimp and baitfish imitations to nymphs, streamers, and saltwater flies, these materials add depth, flash, texture, and realism that bring flies to life in the water.

At FINATICS, our Tubing & Body Materials collection includes mylar tubing, braid, body tubing, scud back, vinyl rib, flex body materials, woven body materials, shellback materials, and specialty products designed to create lifelike segmented bodies and durable fly patterns. These materials are commonly used in shrimp flies, crab flies, baitfish patterns, nymphs, streamers, and countless freshwater and saltwater designs.

Whether you're tying trout flies, bass flies, salmon and steelhead patterns, redfish flies, bonefish flies, permit crabs, or offshore baitfish patterns, you'll find the body-building materials needed to create realistic, fish-catching flies.
