Davy Wotton SLF squirrel dubbing
I'm sure everybody on here has probally used this stuff but its new to me. I pick up some of this stuff the other day in the 12 color dispenser case. This stuff is great the colors are oustanding and when using the touch dubb method its super spikey. Just thought I would share highly recommend this stuff.

No thats funny, I just came across the stuff today for the first time. The attributes you mentioned are exactly how I was hoping it would perform. Thanks for bringing it up.

His range of dubbings are great for sure. I recently have been using the SLF Kauffman and its a great dubbing for large flies.
Re: Davy Wotton SLF squirrel dubbing
Yes, is is a great dubbing material often overlooked. l also at one time marketed this with a %50 of hares ear blend and squirrel.
Do you know that from a average grey squirrel you obtain about 8 to 12 grams of body hair. You need many to make 1lb in weight of dubbing material.
and it is no fun having to shear the hides either.

Squirrel makes super nice nymph dubbing, in fact my Hare's Ear blend always has a little blended in it for extra spike.
