The Needle Tube, like its antecedent the Needle Fly, was designed originally with sea trout in mind. The aim was to produce fine, shiny, steel tubes on which to dress extremely slim, sparsely dressed lures of up to around two inches in length, lures which might create a tantalising impression of a small fish or sand eel which would be irresistible to summer sea trout, a task for which the Needle Tube has proved extremely effective. The stainless tube material they are made from is strong & non corrosive and ideal for use in most demanding environments. The metals resilience to corrosion has to be one of its most important qualities as it ensures it is safer to use in the above industries.
