Synthetic dubbing is used to create colourful, durable and attractive bodies, thoraxes, collars and hot spots on nymphs, wet flies, streamers, emergers and modern tactical fly patterns. In this category you will find fine synthetic dubbing, sparkle dubbing, UV dubbing, flashy dubbing blends and other synthetic fibres designed for different fly tying styles.
Compared with natural dubbing, synthetic dubbing offers stronger colour options, more shine, better visibility and specific visual effects such as UV reflection, translucency or metallic sparkle. Fine synthetic fibres are useful for slim nymph bodies and small thoraxes, while brighter or longer fibres can be used for streamers, attractor flies and trigger points.
At Trout Line, you can find selected synthetic dubbing from Troutline, Hends and Sybai, including fine tactical dubbing, Lite Brite style fibres, Spectra dubbing and other modern materials for trout, grayling, perch and streamer patterns. This category is ideal for fly tiers who need colour, flash, durability and controlled sparkle in their artificial flies.
