Crystal Mirror Flash

Crystal Mirror Flash adds a lively sparkle that catches the eye as a fly turns in the water. The twisted strands throw reflections in different directions, making them a natural choice for mobile streamers and bright lure wings.

Crystal Mirror Flash Key Features and Benefits

• Twisted synthetic strands create flashes from several angles rather than one flat surface.
• A strong accent for trout, salmon, sea-trout and predator fly wings.
• Can be blended sparingly with natural fibres or used for brighter synthetic dressings.
• Six stocked colour options for natural and attractor patterns.

Top Tips for Using Crystal Mirror Flash

• Place small bunches under and over a marabou wing so the flash appears as the fibres move.
• Try a few shorter strands in the tail rather than making every strand full wing length.
• Keep the head neat; secure the flash with firm thread wraps before adding the outer wing.

Fly Patterns and Uses for Crystal Mirror Flash

• Baitfish streamers and fry imitations
• Bright trout lures and sea-trout patterns
• Salmon hairwings with flickering highlights

Crystal Mirror Flash Frequently Asked Questions

How is Crystal different from Krinkle?

Crystal is twisted for multi-angle sparkle. Krinkle Mirror Flash is creased for a broken, segmented effect.

Will the fibres overpower a natural wing?

Not if used sparingly. Start with just a few strands among the hair and add more only when the pattern calls for a brighter look.

Can it be tied into a marabou fly?

Yes. Crystal flash and marabou work beautifully together: the marabou moves softly while the twisted flash catches light around it.
