    Default Question About a Flashy Type of Dubbing

    Hi All,

    I used a fly a little this summer that a friend had purchased, and am thinking about tyiing some.

    The dubbed body is very flashy, perhaps like a ground up flashabou. It may also be a very fine krystal flash type material, but with very narrow strands, as some of the same color material is in the wing, and it looks like krystal flash, but is very very narrow.

    The question is, what is this stuff? In this fly it is perhaps a lime green color.

    Thanks and regards for and help,

    Gandolf

    I have some SLF dubbing that fits that description. John
    I wish you all everlasting flies and tight lines.

    I'm with Bassman, sounds like some type of SLF to me.

    I"ve got both Ice Dub and SLF and the Ice dub is definitely flashier.
