Wapsi Superfine Dubbing is a premium, ultra-fine synthetic dubbing designed specifically for dry flies and small nymphs where a smooth, slender profile is critical. Its superfine texture allows for tight, even dubbing wraps that sit high on the water and resist water absorption—perfect for tying realistic and buoyant dry flies that fool wary fish.
At Feather Craft, we appreciate materials that make tying cleaner, more precise patterns, and Wapsi Superfine Dubbing does exactly that. It’s a joy to work with, especially when crafting delicate dry fly bodies or building thin, elegant profiles on midges and emergers. The fibers taper beautifully and are available in an impressive range of hatch-matching colors, so your flies can look as good as they fish.
We regularly use Superfine Dubbing in patterns like:
-
Blue Wing Olive (Dry) – the superfine texture allows for a smooth, segmented body without bulk.
-
Parachute Adams – ideal for creating a trim body that balances with the hackle and post for perfect floatation.
-
RS2 – for the slim, grayish abdomen that mimics an emerging mayfly or midge.
-
Midge Adult – excellent for building tiny #20–#26 bodies with realistic taper.
-
Comparadun – helps create a sleek, floating profile that mimics crippled or emerging insects.
We’ve tested this dubbing across hatches, from spring creeks to alpine lakes, and its buoyancy and finesse consistently deliver. Whether you’re matching a hatch down to the exact shade or experimenting with attractor colors, Wapsi Superfine Dubbing gives you the control and quality you need.
At Feather Craft, we’re proud to offer products like this that elevate your fly tying—and your fishing. Tie tighter, fish longer, and trust your dries to stay on top with Wapsi Superfine Dubbing.
