Wapsi Swiss Straw, also known as Raffia, is a thin straw like material. This material absorbs water to help reduce the buoyancy of the fly. Swiss Straw is great for wing cases on nymphs, backs on scuds, sow bugs, shells for crayfish, and shrimp patterns. Swiss Straw can be colored with permanent marker once on the fly to customize your pattern.
Each package contains approximately 15 feet of material.

I purchased these mainly to target carp, but this pattern will work well in a variety of situations. The flies are well tied seem durable and come in a variety of colors. Also, great customer service from Clouser's Fly Shop and fast shipping.
These are my go to hooks for Clouser’s. As with all brands, the sizes are brand and model specific. One example, the size 6 in this hook would be a size 4 in other hooks. I recommend you buy a few sizes in your usual range of ties to dial it in.
I fish a lot of shallow salt. Never not loaded with deep minnows in 6-1/0
It looks great in the water. Hard for the large mouth bass to resist. Caught a nice on on my first cast this morning.
Top quality tails. Important to wash and dry the undyed tails with Dawn in the sink.
Quality flies done with attention to durability and detail
