Benefits and strengths of Hare Plus Dubbing
Hare Plus Dubbing stands out for its exceptional realism, allowing you to create bodies and thoraxes that are more believable than ever. The combination of hare fur with light brite and antron delivers subtle highlights, a touch of sparkle and a natural translucency ideal for insect imitations. Thanks to its suppleness, it works easily, conforms to the hook without bulk and withstands regular use. The resulting texture optimizes floatation and fly attractiveness while remaining easy to handle, even for beginners. Its versatility makes it the perfect choice for demanding dry flies as well as nymphs that fish near the bottom.

Usage tips and recommended patterns
To get the most out of Hare Plus Dubbing, use a fine to medium thread and a dubbing needle suited to the desired fly size. Work in small pinches to achieve an airy or denser wrap depending on the profile you want. This dubbing excels at forming thoraxes for caddis, mayfly and nymph imitations. Pair it with your favorite tying techniques and use it for full bodies or loose dubbings on streamers. Don’t hesitate to blend Hare Plus with other natural materials to increase the variety in your patterns.
