Mylar Skirting

Hi All - Looking for a good source to by mylar skirting to rebuild a bunch of meat rigs and also build a bunch more.  Been digging around online and having difficulty finding them.  Atomik has teasers made up in packages of 3, the majority of the other tackle guys don't offer it, and not finding exactly what I need online.  I'm looking for individual colors by the sheet that will make about / roughly 12 teasers per sheet or something close.  

 

Any help is appreciated...  Pray for sun this weekend!

How many flies can you make from a 1 yard sample? I don't understand how the yard is measured.

The Mylar is "banded" at the top , probably a quarter of and inch of the top of the material is solid and it's what holds all the Mylar together . You just cut out one, two or three inch sections to make your flies

Yes end to end one yard long by two or four inches and I believe they also carry six inch material as well

Great, thank you eafd30! I might try my hand at some salmon flies. I make my own walleye harnesses, so fly tying shouldn't be that difficult.

Purple Taco trolling flies.  Its abut 3.25 - 3.50 a yard. 

 

Thanks a lot Brian, I make all my own walleye rigs and the 8,6mm beads this man has is awesome and at a price you can't beat. I lost my contacts for glow beads where this outfit has twice the amount for half the price. Put a order for 100 of all the glow beads and a sample of the cats eyes. Thanks brother for sharing your knowledge!! PAP

I got some from them last week and tied up some flies. I used 4 inch for primary color and the 2 inch for underlying colors. I think the 2 inch is too short and I wish I would have gotten all 4 inch and used 4 inch for both primary and secondary color. Also, should I make some with how ( for early morning or overcast?) And some with UV for later in day, bright days??? Thanks.
