Might be a dumb question, but I'm kind of new to all this. Does brushing out "trapped fibers" loosen the wraps at all or is it pretty secure by the wraps themselves?
The trapped fibers are really the long ends of the fibers. The center of the fibers are trapped by the thread. When you twist the dubbing loop, you are kind of making a rope that firmly holds the dubbing. If that makes sense. The dubbing he is using has long fibers.
Just came off some private trout water here in Virginia. White was definitely the go to color. Wish I had seen this video in advance of the trip.
Yeah Kyle sick pattern
Looks awesome!

Have you tried other color combinations?
You call out the Tiemco part number, but say nothing about the hook size. 4, 6, 8?
I will get with Kyle and get you the hook size, sorry about that!
