Solarez UV resin

I am very pleased to announce that Silver Scales Fly Tying is now a Solarez stockist!

Solarez is probably the best UV resin on the market, and I can say that with authority because I have had the chance to use and test a great many of the other UV resins on the market!

Once cured it is absolutely bone dry, that is to say there is no sticky or tacky residue left behind on the surface of the resin that then has to be re coated with varnish to give a final dry finish. This would seem to me to be not only self defeating but also very uneconomical! Why not just use a product like Solarez that does the job properly in one hit?!

Solarez comes in several different versions and at the moment we are stocking the fly tie tubes in Thin and Thick versions. We will also be stocking the flex soon as well as other larger sizes for those who tie a lot of flies or tie professionally. Solarez is definitely the Pro's choice and if you've never tried it then I suggest very strongly that you do!

Head over to the shop and take a look ;)

Sybai Ghost hair

One of my suppliers here at Silver Scales is a great company called Sybai and they have a great range of mostly unique products.
One such product is called Ghost hair and they recently brought out a Saltwater version, in fact they have added a Saltwater version to several of their range including the awesome Flash hair! The Saltwater ranges are not only perfect for salty stuff but also Pike and other predator flies. Both the above mentioned products are available in the Silver Scales shop.

I have put together a new video featuring one way of using these two brilliant materials.

Hope you like it and if you have a minute please visit the Silver Scales shop to check out our great products range and subscribe to our news letter to be updated when new items are added to our stock and keep up with special offers and other news!
