Thumbs up wonderful dubbing
After reading the article in March T & S called WET, DRY and SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN I decided to buy some of the Angelina fusion fibers.Went to my local Hobbycraft as directed in the article,but found that they did not have a great stock of colours!! So looked on the web and found a company called BEE INSPIRED LTD and bought a range of the most splendid colours available, at avery reasonable price.This is wonderful stuff the staple is long and dubs very easily and makes great fly bodyJuat thought I would share this with the forum

It also mixes well with most other dubbings we use i.e. seal, hares fur etc.

I see that they are intended to be made into solid objects by melting them together like this:

Fibrecrafts - the Art of textiles and colour, Angelina Fibres

I wonder if there are any fly tying uses for that property?

They also make somthing called Fusible Film which comes in the same colours as the Fusion Fibres , this makes a nice bright shellback for Grayling nymphs and shrimps.

I got mine from my local Hobbycraft shop.
