Advantages and product strengths
The density and fineness of the hairs of the Devaux hare mask provide exceptional buoyancy, mobility and attractiveness to artificial flies. The variety of fibers allows perfect blends for realistic dubbing. The natural color, subtly varying across the mask, ensures ideal camouflage. Used in tying hare-ear nymphs, it also enables innovation by combining different materials.
Easy to handle, this natural material is particularly wear-resistant, offering excellent durability of fly ties even after many outings.

Usage tips and recommended ties
To make the most of the Devaux hare mask with ears, it is recommended to harvest hairs according to the mask zone (cheeks, crown, ears) to vary texture and visual effect. To create a dense, prickly thorax, simply take a small brush of hairs and incorporate it as dubbing. Adding a few ear fibers to a nymph increases realism and mobility. For dry flies and emergers, mix shorter hairs for better flotation. Hand dubbing or dubbing loop techniques are recommended for even distribution.
