The metallic finish of the Ribbons adds an attractive flash and sparkle to many types of flies. Use a bodkin to pick apart the fibers of the ribbon to make wings. Kreinik's Ribbons lay flat and are an excellent wrap for streamer bodies. They are easier to use than many tinsel wraps, while still providing the required body flash of the streamer.
Ribbons also make excellent shell cases, or backs, on crayfish or stoneflies.

In all cases, the color number will remain the same.
