Veevus Holographic Tinsel is an ultra-bright polyester mylar fly tying material designed to add bold flash, lifelike reflection, and durable shine to a wide range of fly patterns. Whether you are tying sleek Perdigons, flashy nymph bodies, caddis pupae, buzzers, streamer accents, wing cases, underwings, or steelhead patterns, this tinsel delivers a brilliant holographic finish that stands out in the water.
Built to be stronger than many traditional mylar tinsels, Veevus Holographic Tinsel resists splitting, fraying, and breaking when wrapped under tension. Its color stays bright when stretched, making it a dependable choice for clean bodies, crisp ribs, and high-visibility accents on both freshwater and saltwater flies.
Veevus Holographic Tinsel gives fly tyers the flash of classic mylar with better strength and handling. It wraps cleanly, holds its color, and creates a sharp reflective finish that works especially well under UV resin. We especially like it for Perdigons, competition nymphs, wing cases, and small patterns where a little flash can make a big difference without adding bulk.

Veevus Holographic Tinsel is ideal for tying:
Start with a smooth, flat thread base before wrapping Veevus Holographic Tinsel. A clean underbody helps the tinsel lay evenly and creates a seamless, polished body profile.
Use steady tension while wrapping to keep the material tight and smooth. For high-wear patterns like heavily weighted Perdigons or competition nymphs, coat the finished tinsel body with a thin layer of UV resin. This locks the material in place, increases durability, and intensifies the holographic shine.
