Iris Flash DEVAUX

Iris Flash DEVAUX — long, striated and iridescent fibers for ultra-attractive fly ties

Iris Flash is a tying material made up of long synthetic fibers of approximately 20 cm, recognizable by their striated texture and their particularly bright iridescent reflections. Designed for tying streamer wings in saltwater as well as freshwater, it combines brilliance, mobility and versatility. It is equally suited to powerful predator patterns and finer models such as chironomids, attractive nymphs or certain modern perdigones.

Its striated appearance is one of its major distinguishing features. This structure creates multiple micro-reflections that catch the light and reinforce the illusion of small scales. The result remains realistic while adding a touch of brilliance that is very effective at triggering strikes, especially when fish rely heavily on visual cues.

The fibers also offer a pronounced iridescent effect: depending on the angle and brightness, they produce multicolored reflections that increase the visibility and attractiveness of the fly. This shimmer proves deadly on species such as pike, zander, bass, perch and largemouth bass.

With their length of 20 cm, these fibers make it easy to tie long, well-profiled wings, ideal for saltwater streamers or large pike streamers. Their lightness promotes natural animation even with little movement — they undulate freely, vibrate and pulse, giving the fly a very lifelike swimming action.

Iris Flash also stands out for its wide range of applications. In addition to streamers, it can be used to:

• Tie shiny chironomid bodies
• Modernize perdigones with a touch of light
• Tie attractive nymphs
• Add reflections to the wings, backs or flanks of many patterns

Its fineness allows for subtle or more pronounced effects depending on the quantity used, while keeping the fly neat and balanced. Durable, it withstands saltwater, handling and repeated strikes without losing its brilliance or mobility. A long, striated and highly luminous material, Iris Flash is ideal for adding realism and strong attractiveness to your streamers as well as your finer patterns.
