Descent Dub

« Back to Glossary Index

Hareline Quick Descent Dub is crafted from fine aluminum strands, offering a range of seven vibrant colors. This innovative dubbing is designed to enhance the weight of both freshwater and saltwater flies, making it an essential addition to your tying materials. Its fine texture allows for easy application, ensuring a smooth integration with your thread.

Quick Descent Dubbing excels at getting nymphs and streamers down quickly without the need for additional weights like wires or beads, although it can be combined with them for extra sinking power. It’s suitable for a variety of patterns, including streamer bodies, nymphs, hot spots, wet flies, midges, emergers, and steelhead flies. However, it’s not intended for use in patterns that require buoyancy.

When it comes to weighting flies, Hareline’s Quick Descent Dubbing stands out among common dubbing materials, offering a unique way to add weight while maintaining an attractive appearance. While alternatives like Ice Dub can provide similar colors, they lack the aluminum properties that give Quick Descent Dubbing its exceptional performance in sinking applications.

You can incorporate Quick Descent Dubbing in various patterns, with notable examples like a Drowned Trico or Bubble Pupa, both benefiting from its ability to quickly add weight to your flies
