Nayat Smelt Green

Nayat Smelt Green is a light, pastel and slightly muted green. Compared with Sage it is warmer and greener, without pronounced grey-blue tones. It works as a base for small baitfish patterns such as stickleback imitations, as a subtle back, and in pale pike streamers where white would create too much contrast. It combines well with pearl, silver, white, light olive and subdued flash blends.
 
Nayat, also known as Snow Runner, is a natural material for tying streamers and large predator flies.
