Uni Glo Floss brings an extra dimension to modern fly tying with a glow in the dark effect that stands out in low light, coloured water and night fishing situations. Designed by Uni Products, this luminous fly tying floss charges under light and then emits a visible glow, making it especially useful for hot spots, trigger points and attraction features on salmon, sea trout and predator fly patterns.

Fly tyers use glow in the dark floss to introduce subtle yet highly visible focal points within a pattern, especially when fish are feeding aggressively or visibility is limited. Whether tied into lure bodies, thorax hotspots, tails or small accent tags, Uni Glo Floss gives anglers another valuable option when conventional materials are not creating enough visual presence in the water.
Particularly popular with anglers targeting sea trout after dark and salmon in coloured or peat-stained water, Uni Glo Floss also works extremely well in modern stillwater lure patterns where additional visibility can often trigger takes. Used carefully, the glow effect enhances a fly without overpowering the overall profile or movement of the pattern.
At troutcatchers, glow materials continue to grow in popularity amongst both traditional and modern fly tyers experimenting with visual triggers, attractor points and low-light fly designs.
