Bosnian Kapok Danica

The Bosnian Kapok Danica - from Barbless Flies

Bosnian variations on the Mayfly theme. These aren't museum pieces. They're working interpretations tied by our Bosnian tier - someone who understands proportion, material quality, and the difference between a nymph that looks right and one that fishes right.

The materials used for this fly are:

  • ⁠Thread: White Semperfli Nano Silk 10D
  • Tail: Coq de Leon
  • Dubbing: Semperfli Kapok (Danica) ⁠
  • Wings: Premium Partridge Hackle
  • Hook: Ahrex FW503 size 12 barbless

Kapok is one of the most interesting and relatively new materials on the market, especially in the Danica shade. It is extremely soft and gives the fly a very natural colour and appearance, closely matching the real Danica mayfly.

What makes Kapok so special is its natural buoyancy. Unlike many other materials, it does not absorb water, which helps the fly stay afloat without the need to tie it with any additional floating materials or use excessive floatant.

The wings are made from first-class Partridge feathers and split into a V-shape to imitate the natural posture of the Danica mayfly as accurately as possible.

These flies are only available in Packs of 5.
