What cutter set do we recommend to new tyers? TheHopper/Caddis/Ant Foam Body Cutter! It is amazingly versatile. With five cutters a new tyer can create 20 patterns or more. The trade off? Less realistic, but VERY fishable flies on a budget.

These straight-sided, round-ended bodies can be used for extended bodies on Hopper, Stonefly and Caddis patterns, as well as bodies for Ant and other terrestrial patterns.

Many tyers use this shape as bodies for the new Chaos Hopper pattern.
