Fur is used in artificial fly tying. There are several types of bristles that can be used depending on the fly you want to imitate. Some commonly used hairs include deer hair, deer hair, hare hair, mink hair, fox hair and squirrel hair without forgetting bear hair.

​

These hairs are used to create the body, wings, tail and other parts of the artificial fly. Their texture, buoyancy, and appearance are all factors considered when selecting the appropriate hair for fly tying.

​

Fur can be used alone or can also be combined with other materials such as thread, tinsel, feathers and dubbing to create a realistic and attractive fly for fish. Fly tying technique can vary depending on the type of hair used and the characteristics of the fly you want to create.

It is important to note that some species of fish can be very selective and require very realistic fly imitations. In these cases, choosing the right hair and rigging technique can make a big difference in the success of your fishing.
