Aqua Flies Poly Tubes 3mm

Description

Aqua Flies is pleased to offer Poly Tubes for fly tying. Their tubes are formulated from a temperature stable polyethylene, meaning in near freezing conditions the tubes will not break.

The 3mm size makes a great platform for tying larger steelhead flies, such as Intruders or saltwater streamers. It is is soft enough that no junction tubing is needed. Simply insert the hook eye into the back of the fly and you are ready to start fishing.

The inside diameter of the 3mm will accept the 1.8mm tube perfectly. Add a cone to your fly by using the 1.8mm tube as a liner for the 3mm tube. A drop of super glue will hold the smaller tube in place, but to make for a more secure fit, cinch down on the tying thread so the larger tube is bound down onto the smaller tube. Hold the cone in place by holding a flame close to the end of the tube so it melts slightly and creates a collar.

20 tubes per pack

Available here in two sizes: 1.8mm (1/16″) outside diameter and 3mm (1/8″) outside diameter
