I don't think this is made anymore. I have a dispenser but don't know if it's for tying nymphs, drys or both.

Dave,
I used to have a load of this stuff. Probably still do somewhere. If I remember correctly, it's a mixture of rabbit fur and soft antron. It was advertised and used for dries, wets and nymphs.

I wonder.................
I have this very interesting book which is in a three ring binder by Kenn M. Ligas. The last two pages of the book are color samples of Scintila dubbing which is/was in the BCS - Borger Color System.
Wonder if the dubbing might be connected??

One of the two sample pages:

MIght be. The colors in the dispensor are three different shades of hare's ear, orange scud, green caddis, muskrat, black, olive.
According to their his web site, Wally Allen of http://www.ligasflies.com in CO is "world?s source of Ligas tying materials " so you might want to contact him. There's no mention of dubbing on the web site, however. From scanning past threads on other boards, looks like Scintilla was a Ligas product, but a different line.
Might look at this. According to the packet, it says for nymphs...........

Ligas is no longer made along with slf..shame nice stuff...I have a portfolio of the origanal 40 colors..
Interested in the Ligas notebook? Each page is in a plastic sleeve. Lots of patterns.
Got the Scintilla dubbing notebook in 1994 to pair with the Ligas notebook & try to match colors to a Combo-Color-Selector that had a way of determining which color the bass would strike more times than not. There are 9 1/2 pages of dubbing.Attachment 10852Attachment 10853
