Amadou


With this extremly absorbent fungus your wet dry-flies will become floatable again. The very soft material is gentle with the hackles.

Choose from olive-, rose-, amboina-wood or ebony. The wood is varnished or oiled, which looks more elegant. However, oiled wood requires same care from time to time. A metal stamp burns Springforelle’s logo in every wood.

Amboina (Pterocarpus indicus Willd.), also known as Burmese rosewood because of its tender scent, which remains hidden under the varnish. In return the wonderful grain comes into one’s own.

The other side of the enormous absorbency is that you have to avoid complete wetting. In continuous rain it may lose its original fluffy appearance and ampleness. Then better stow it in a dry pocket of your fly vest.
