Comparisons

Hareline Ultra Chenille vs Hareline Catus Chenille - Ultra Chenille is soft and has a texture and looks more like dubbing. Cactus Chenille is flashier and gives a buggier look. Catus Chenille is small pieces of mylar around a twisted rope core and Ultra Chenille is Antron or similar soft material around a twisted core. Use the Ultra Chenille when you want a more subdued natural-looking fly.
