From trailing shucks on your favorite emerger pattern to large streamers, Hareline’s Ice Fur is one of those materials with a ton of practical and fishy applications. Made with just a hint of sparkle, Ice Fur has great reflection in the water, and its synthetic construction offers natural movement while quickly and easily shedding water. A useful material whether you’re planning to fish to rising heads or want to whip up something to throw at predatory saltwater fish, Ice Fur is a versatile synthetic that can do it all.
Uses
Ice Fur is a material with a wealth of uses that span from trailing shucks on emergers/wet flies, wings, tails, and bodies on streamers, and you can even use it to tie crustaceans like crabs and shrimp.
Comparisons
Ice Fur, with its integrated flash and unique texture, is a material without any incredibly close alternatives. However, Enrico Puglisi’s EP Fibers are a pretty similar option that can be used in the same applications. Both of these synthetic materials have a nice crinkle that adds volume quickly, and you can turn to each of them with confidence whether you’re tying up baitfish imitations, crabs, or small freshwater emergers, but if you want a little sparkle, Ice Fur is a better option.
