    Byron, thank you for that. While I do a majority of my dubbing on a NorVise, I can see that as a handy tool for loop dubbing on my Dyna-King.
    Trout don't speak Latin.

    Thanks Tyrone,
    I just shared that info because I thought some might enjoy seeing it.
    Which Dyna King?

    This is perhaps a better video site for that new dubbing tool,

    Gary Borger also has a positive mention of it on his blog (http://www.garyborger.com/). His book "Nymphing" was my first introduction to dubbing loops with the hair legged woolly worm.

    I do think dubbing loops and brushes are underused. They really open up some new uses of materials and different techniques. However, I'm not convinced that I should spend the $s on another tool but we'll see.

    John,
    Although I said at the outset that I am not personally interested in having one, I respect Gary Borger as one of the finest and best educated fisherman/tiers around. Not only does he have a PhD in forestry or tree science (and was a Professor of Biology), he has earned an honorary PhD in fly fishing/tying in my opinion. If I were at all interested in one of these devices, I would certainly carefully weigh his opinion.
    Thanks

    Darn, you beat me to it, Allan.

    A sure fire candidate for a future 'does anybody remember this obscure tying tool from time gone by?' thread.
