Advantages and highlights of the Devaux DETACHABLE BODY :
The Devaux DETACHABLE BODY stands out for its exceptional ability to replicate the fine morphology and texture of natural insects. Its lightweight structure ensures excellent balance, enhancing the subtle presentation at rest and improving natural drift on the water. The materials used are water-resistant, retain buoyancy and do not deform after multiple uses. This product is also distinguished by its ease of tying, which reduces the time needed to create each fly while ensuring a professional result.

Usage tips and recommended patterns :
To fully exploit the potential of the Devaux DETACHABLE BODY, gently slide the tube onto the bend of the hook, making sure to match the length to the desired mayfly pattern. We recommend using very fine dubbing heads and CDC feather wings to complete the imitation. This detachable body is particularly suited to dry fly patterns, notably classic mayflies and emergers. For a perfect finish, add a touch of UV varnish to seal the tying and strengthen the assembly.

Testimonials and expert opinions :
"Having tested the Devaux DETACHABLE BODY from its launch, I was amazed by the realism achieved on my mayfly ties. Trout proved noticeably more selective on these imitations during my recent outings (spring 2024). It’s easy to handle, the material retains its shape perfectly and buoyancy remains impeccable after several drifts. An accessory I strongly recommend to any serious tier!" — Julien, angler and tier for 20 years
