Swannundaze ?

Post by Walker »

Could anyone please tell me what this is and where I can buy this. A stone-fly pattern in Canadian Fly Fisher mag calls for it.

I saw that pattern too. You don't have to stick to the exact recipe, in fact larva lace is very close to Swannundaze. The only difference is larva lace is round. Just buy some larva lace in a small size and the pattern will work perfectly. They sell larva lace at Float, paddle and fly.

It's the plastic lace material the craft stores sell for making woven key chains, bracelets, etc. Some fly shops actually sell it, though if you need a substitute, go with either the larva lace or v-rib material.
