Rainbow Dub is a highly attractive synthetic dubbing designed for fly tiers seeking a luminous and vibrant material. Thanks to its iridescent, rainbow-like reflections, this dubbing boasts a unique brilliance that catches the light from every angle. This characteristic makes it an ideal choice for increasing the visibility and attractiveness of your imitations, whether in clear or slightly stained water.
Its composition of fine synthetic fibers allows for easy and precise tying. Rainbow Dub can be used for both the bodies and thoraxes of nymphs, emergers, or perdigones. Its lightweight texture spreads harmoniously around the tying thread, offering a voluminous yet controlled appearance, perfect for suggesting the life and movement of aquatic insects.
Thanks to its internal color variations, this dubbing generates subtle reflections that remarkably mimic the natural micro-mirrors found on many aquatic invertebrates. This visual property enhances the appeal of your fly patterns, especially for wary or educated fish.
Rainbow Dub is particularly well-suited to:
– perdigones requiring a bright thorax or a touch of sparkle,
– nymphs with a subtle yet effective hotspot,
– emergers where an iridescent thorax can trigger a strike,
– micro-flies or modern flies that rely on contrasting light.
Highly versatile, this dubbing can be used in a wide variety of tying techniques: wrapped, twisted onto copper wire, inserted into a dubbing loop, or applied in excess and then combed for a ruffled effect.
With Rainbow Dub, you can easily add a strong visual signature to your patterns while maintaining ease of use.
