Semperfli Synthetic Peacock Herl is designed to imitate natural peacock herl. This synthetic imitation is a fritz / chenille which contains all the iridescents that you find in natural peacock herl, accents of blue, green, copper and gold highlight and change in different lighting conditions just like natural peacock herl.

Peacock herl has been used for many years as a stunning fly tying material. With its stunning iridescence fly tyers love the way the colors change as you look at this amazing material. Because of CITES the Semperfli team decided to create a synthetic peacock herl that would reflect different colors. The new Peacock Herl has black, blue and green backgrounds and different colored tinsels embedded. With a tight core the reflects the peacock’s natural iridescence and color changing effects as light hits different parts of the herl. With this synthetic herl you can cover the hook very quickly with simple wraps to create perfect alternative to Peacock Herl without the concern that your Peacock Herl will snap mid fly.

When Semperfli worked on the prototypes of this product they sent it to some of Semperfli's pro team for testing and received exciting feedback. Hans van Klinken immediately used it as the thorax of his Klinkhamer and told us its absolutely great, awesome for Klinkhamer 2.0 for size 12 and larger flies.

Semperfli Synthetic Peacock Herl features:

• It is far far stronger than natural peacock herl, and being so robust it will make a fly with an exposed area like a Klinkhammer thorax last longer before it is destroyed.
• The length is not limited to the length of the herl like natural.
• 3 different color variants which can be used alone or weaved together to enhance effect.
