Benefits and key strengths
The Devaux FOAMCUT stands out by keeping flies on the surface for prolonged periods, even during the most challenging drifts. Its exceptional buoyancy faithfully imitates terrestrial insects and parachute patterns—key elements to fool the wariest fish. Its firm cellular structure prevents premature collapse of the body and promotes a perfectly segmented silhouette when wrapped in tight turns, giving your patterns enhanced realism.

You also enjoy fast tying: FOAMCUT foam does not slip under the thread, guaranteeing a secure hold on the hook. It offers a wide range of possibilities for emergent nymphs, chironomids, and all terrestrial insect imitations that require exemplary buoyancy.

Usage tips and recommended patterns
To get the most from Devaux FOAMCUT, wrap the strip firmly around the hook to create segmented bodies for chironomids or other aquatic insects. Prefer a low-weight bead head to preserve buoyancy, or combine it with natural dubbing for a realistic finish. For parachute patterns, FOAMCUT foam is an excellent support for the hackle, ensuring perfect visibility on the water even in difficult conditions. Vary thread tension to obtain regular segmentation of the body and improved durability.
