Glo Bug Egg Yarn

Glo Bug Egg Yarn forms bright, rounded egg imitations in a few easy tying steps. Its fluffy fibres gather together naturally, then trim into a neat little egg that can be fished alone or used as a strong colour accent.

Glo Bug Egg Yarn Key Features and Benefits

• Soft, fluffy yarn makes compact rounded egg bodies with minimal materials.
• Five bright current colour choices.
• Approximately 30cm of yarn per packet, enough for many small eggs.
• Can also be used for fluorescent tags, short tails or accent tufts.

Top Tips for Using Glo Bug Egg Yarn

• Lay the yarn across the hook, catch it with a few firm wraps and then pull it upright.
• Trim the fibres a little at a time, rotating the fly for a rounded shape.
• Leave the hook gap clear; an overlarge yarn egg is hard to fish cleanly.
• Try a smaller contrasting tuft behind the main egg for a two-tone attractor.

Fly Patterns and Uses for Glo Bug Egg Yarn

• Glo Bug and egg-fly patterns
• Small freshwater attractor nymphs
• Short fluorescent tags on wet flies and lures

Glo Bug Egg Yarn Frequently Asked Questions

How do I tie a round Glo Bug?

Tie in a small yarn bundle securely, lift the fibres upright and trim gently around the hook until a compact ball forms.

Does more yarn make a better egg?

Not necessarily. A small, tidy bundle often looks more convincing and is easier to keep clear of the hook point.

Can I use it beyond egg patterns?

Yes. Short tufts work nicely as bright tails or tags on attractors without changing the entire body material.

How much is supplied?

Approximately 30cm per packet; the number of flies depends on how large and full you tie each egg.
