Uses

One of those natural materials that can be used in a bunch of different tying applications, Deer Hair can be used for things like up or downwing dry flies, emerger wings, nymph wingcases, or terrestrials, and it is the ultimate choice for spun deer hair applications--from Zoo Cougar heads to complex bass bugs, Hareline Premo Deer Hair gets the job done.

Comparisons

Deer Hair is most commonly compared to Elk Body Hair, and while they are both hollow-fibered hairs, there are some differences between the two. Deer Hair is superior for spinning and trimming and makes for some of the best spun bodied flies. However, Deer Hair tends to be slightly more brittle but can still be used for dry fly applications. Elk Hair, on the other hand, is often a bit less brittle with larger fibers and slightly more air trapped in them. While both have their own benefits, there's no doubt that Deer Hair is a versatile material that's superior for those looking to spin and clip their flies.

Example Flies

Deer hair is a material with an almost endless list of uses, but a few of the most commonly known patterns that use it are:

• Muddler Minnow
• Goddard Caddis
