Semperfli Synthetic Rabbit Zonker – Durable, Water-Shedding Fly Tying Material (1m)

Meet Semperfli Synthetic Rabbit Zonker, a modern take on classic rabbit fur strips designed for fly tying and streamer patterns. The synthetic material offers a consistent performance, season after season, with a soft, dense texture that behaves predictably on the water.

Why choose synthetic zonker over traditional rabbit strips?

• Water shedding helps keep the surface lighter and reduces drag during casting
• Maintains its shape for a lifelike profile through lengthy retrieves
• Durable construction that resists wear after tying and fishing conditions
• Easy to cast and maneuver, even with longer patterns

Compared to traditional rabbit strips, this Zonker offers a smooth, controlled glide through the water. It is carded for convenient handling and ships in a 1 meter per pack length, making it simple to measure and tie.

Real world use cases
