Fishguy79 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Hi folks - I have several snowshoe rabbits feet that a friend snarred this winter and gave. And I lucked upon a polar bear rug that was cut up into small packages and sold for fly tying (legal here in Canada). I’ve noticed that right next to the hide on both the feet and PB there is a super super fine layer of cotton-like underfur that I am thinking would make superb ultra-fine dry fly body dubbing. Has anyone used it? Does it work? Appreciate your advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDoctor Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 It makes excellent Dry Fly Dubbing. Floats well and easy to dubb for flies like the Adams. I like the course longer fibers for Wings on dry flies, float like a cork. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
