Bodkin Fly Tying Needle 11.99 cm Brass Handle and Steel Tip Gold Preparatory Needle for Varnish and Dubbing Tool for Fly Fishers
You already have the maximum available quantity in your cart.
The bodkin needle is one of the most commonly used tools in tying artificial flies. The total length of 11.99 cm ensures a comfortable grip and sufficient reach to the hook secured in the vice. The handle is made of brass and has a gold colour, with a thin steel tip embedded in it. The needle is useful for applying a small amount of varnish to the head of the fly, for combing dubbing, and for adjusting individual strands of feathers. It is also suitable for loosening the tying thread or for cleaning the eye of the hook from dried varnish.
The thin and sharp steel tip allows for precise work even on very small flies. The handle is long enough for a firm grip, so the hand remains steady even during delicate tasks. The needle works well with other tying tools, such as hackle pliers, spool holders, or knot finishers. The needle can also be used to separate strands that have become caught under the thread during tying, or to pull out individual fibres of dubbing to make the body of the fly appear livelier. The tip also helps in aligning wings and tails, where it is necessary to gently shift several strands into the correct position. The handle is comfortable to hold, and the needle can be set down on the table next to the vice, keeping it always within reach.

Varnish for the head of the fly is picked up on the very tip of the needle and applied in a small amount directly onto the tying thread. After each use, it is advisable to wipe the tip to prevent the varnish from drying. Dried remnants of varnish can be carefully removed with a cloth soaked in solvent. Store the needle with the tip protected, for example, in a case for tying tools, to prevent the tip from dulling and to avoid injury. Regular cleaning makes further work easier, and the tip remains smooth and clean. The brass handle can be easily wiped clean and retains its appearance even with frequent use.
The bodkin needle is a small but indispensable tool for every tying desk. It will be appreciated by beginners who are assembling their first set of tools, as well as experienced tiers who need a reliable needle for everyday work. The length of 11.99 cm offers a comfortable grip, and the brass handle gives the tool strength and an attractive appearance. With the needle, you can easily apply varnish, adjust dubbing, and finish the fly down to the last detail. It is a useful addition to equipment and a practical gift for anglers who enjoy tying their own flies.
