Pro Sportfisher Pro Flexi Needle The essential precision tool for tube fly tying, designed to provide a secure, non-slip grip on various tube sizes for a stable and efficient tying experience. The Pro Sportfisher Pro Flexi Needle is a fundamental component of the Pro Sportfisher tube fly system, engineered to solve the common issue of tubes spinning or slipping on the mandrel. Featuring a tapered, high-quality steel design, this needle allows the tier to slide tubes of different diameters onto the shaft until they are firmly wedged. This creates a rock-solid foundation, enabling you to apply significant thread tension and complex materials without the tube moving. Whether you are tying large saltwater patterns or delicate freshwater streamers, the Flexi Needle ensures your tube remains stationary throughout the entire process. Key Features Precision Tapered Design: The gradual taper allows the needle to accommodate a wide range of tube diameters and lengths with a perfect, friction-fit seal. High-Grade Steel Construction: Built from durable, rigid stainless steel that resists bending and prevents corrosion from exposure to fly tying cements and resins. Non-Slip Grip: Specifically engineered to provide maximum surface contact with the interior of the tube, preventing rotation even under heavy thread pressure. Universal Vice Compatibility: The base of the needle is designed to fit securely into any standard fly tying vice, transforming it into a dedicated tube-tying station. Seamless Integration: Works perfectly with the entire Pro Sportfisher range, including Flexitubes, Microtubes, and Nanotubes. Polished Finish: Features a smooth, polished surface that allows for the easy removal of the finished fly without damaging the tube or the delicate materials. Best For Fly tiers specialising in tube flies for Salmon, Steelhead, and large saltwater predatory species. Users who find traditional tube mandrels frustrating due to tube slippage or rotation. Professional and hobbyist tiers looking for a reliable, high-quality tool that integrates with a comprehensive tying system.
