High-impact color, lifelike sparkle, and versatile fly tying dubbing for steelhead and salmon patterns.
The Wapsi Super Bright Steelhead #2 Dubbing Dispenser is a 12-color assortment of reflective fly tying dubbing designed for building vibrant, fish-attracting steelhead flies, salmon patterns, Intruders, streamers, wet flies, and attractor nymphs. Each color features a unique blend of three different light-reflective fiber types, with multiple base colors combined to create depth, dimension, and lifelike sparkle in the water.
Whether you're tying bright steelhead Intruders, salmon fly bodies, colorful streamer collars, or flashy nymph thoraxes, this Super Bright dubbing adds brilliant color without sacrificing the textured, buggy appearance that makes dubbed bodies so effective. The convenient dispenser keeps 12 colors organized and readily accessible, making it easy to select, blend, and apply the right amount of dubbing at the vise.
The Wapsi Super Bright Steelhead #2 Dubbing Dispenser is a great option for fly tyers who want an assortment of bold steelhead and salmon dubbing colors without purchasing individual packages of every shade. We especially like the combination of reflective fibers and multicolored blends, which creates a more dimensional appearance than ordinary single-color dubbing. It's an excellent material for building bright Intruder collars, salmon fly bodies, streamer accents, and eye-catching hot spots that stand out in changing water conditions.
Unique Three-Fiber Reflective Blend Combines three different light-reflective fiber types to create exceptional sparkle, color depth, and visual contrast.

Convenient 12-Compartment Dispenser Keeps dubbing organized, separated by color, and easy to access while tying multiple patterns.

Use Sparingly for Better Body Definition Start with a small pinch of dubbing and apply it evenly to your tying thread. Adding too much material at once can create unnecessary bulk and hide the natural texture of the reflective fibers.
Build Fuller Collars with Dubbing Loops For steelhead Intruders, salmon flies, and larger streamers, place the dubbing in a dubbing loop and spin it into a textured rope. After wrapping, use a dubbing brush to tease out the fibers for a fuller, more irregular profile.
Blend Colors for Added Depth Combine bright shades with darker colors such as black or purple to create contrasting bodies and collars. Mixing Super Bright dubbing with natural fur or other synthetic materials can also produce more subdued patterns with just enough flash.
Create High-Contrast Hot Spots Use a small amount of fluorescent orange, pink, red, or chartreuse dubbing near the head, thorax, or collar of a fly to create a bright visual accent without overwhelming the entire pattern.
Control the Profile After Wrapping For tighter wet fly and nymph bodies, gently smooth the dubbing into place. For streamers and Intruder-style flies, pick out selected fibers to create a more open, buggy appearance.
