The tubing is very easy to work with and holds up well in the water. The mesh texture looks authentic and adds a lot of realism to my crab patterns. I’ve used it for several trips and it hasn’t broken under heavy strikes.
Andrew Tucker –
Great quality and consistent color. The flexibility makes tying much easier than other materials I’ve tried. I used it to build a Flexo Crab pattern and it caught a few fish in a rocky area.

Solid product, looks natural and feels good in hand. A bit harder to cut without fraying, but a quick singe fixes that. Works well with my existing tying techniques.
