- This is another very important tutorial, illustrating how the same dubbing can be used in three different techniques for three very different results. All three of these techniques can be utilized on all types on many different style of fly. If these simple skills are learned and practiced they will not only improve your tying but also make your time spent at the vice, much more enjoyable, and will result in neater and quicker flies. These short tutorials will hopefully help all those who are new to our craft, fly tying clubs & workshops, to get the new beginner off to a solid start and establish a good foundation for mastering the art of fly tying. If you have any questions regarding anything “fly tying” you can post a comment and I’ll try and answer it as soon as possible. If you know anyone that is starting tying, especially youngsters, please recommend this new series for them, they are the future of our craft! Visit my site thefeatherbender.com

Thank you Paul, always nice to get positive feedback.
Wow awesome lesson, I’m always picking up something that helps me when I watch your videos. Thank you sir and please stay safe.
Thank you Jimmy, You too my friend...
Thanks for the refresher! Tight lines🐞🪲🐛!!!!!
Hope that it helps.
Hi Barry, same as my last comment regarding dubbing methods, you are a master. Thanks again for another great video regards Jimf
You are very welcome Jim, pleased that you are finding them useful.
Excellent I’ve just shared it with my student coz of lockdown thanks.

Thank you Chris.
Nicely done. Love learning new techniques and what a great explanation and video!
Thanks Butch, so pleased that you are finding them helpful, more to come.
Your videos are extremely helpful. Thank you.
You're very welcome!
Very good Barry, I enjoyed this you make it so simple . Thanks Chris
Thanks Christopher.
Catching the start of the noodle on the shank before twisting the whole body of dubbing is a great take away. Thanks.
Thanks Brian, I'm pleased that you found it useful.
Thanks Berry , very good for beginners !!!!!!!!
Thank you Eddy, many more to come my friend.
Thanks for these videos, Barry. I've dabbled with fly tying in the past, and caught fish on them, but I was totally self taught and gave up think I could never achieve professional results.
You sir, have inspired to start tying again because these videos are so clear and informative, I feel I could do very much better. Thank you ✌️
Hi Scott, thank you there is no better moment I could have. To inspire someone to take up tying or get the vice out again as in your case is what all this is about. Good luck, and if you need any advice please don't hesitate to ask. All the best, Barry.
@@Thefeatherbender Thanks Barry. Keep the content coming. Thanks again.
Fantastic demonstration!
Glad you liked it!
Think you Berry. Just bought your book today. Can't put it down! So beautiful and very thought out and inspiring. Think you for sharing your incredible talent. Best regards from Ohio.
Thank you so much Walter, so pleased that you are enjoying it.
OMG! This makes it so much more understandable. I’m definitely gonna be persevering with dubbing now! Thanks dude. And looking forward to the next one with natural..... I cannot dent I’m a natural freak. Never been into synthetic but now I’ll try it.
ps..... just read the comment about fine emery and hackle pliers. Makes total sense over small rubber tube. Thanks again dude.
Thanks dude, I have a video that shows you how to do it: czcams.com/video/nFHfAkiOvXU/video.html
Awesome! I was struggling with dubbing but now not so much.Thank you!
Glad I could help! May I suggest you looking at my latest book, it will improve your tying: thefeatherbender.com/best-fly-tying-book-for-beginners/
Thank you Sir. Brilliant lesson 👍
Thanks Tim, pleased that you found it helpful!
Thanks a million Barry - I think you may well have saved the sanity of thousands with this video!
Something so simple as the anti-clockwise spin. How long would it have taken me to work that out for myself?
So pleased that it helped.
thank you for the lesson.
Thanks Franck.
Very good video. Always learn something. PS took another tip from you and put fine emery on to the tips of my hackle pliers. No sudden loss of material just at a crucial moment.
Thanks Len. Excellent, I'v been using that little trick for many years now.
Thanks Barry.. every little bit of knowledge helps us.. Hope you are staying well my man.. Heard that cough.. is that left overs from your bout with the sore throat? Don't you go and make me sad now.. stay healthy I do not want any of my friends sick..
Hi Tink, thanks, pleased to know that they help. Yes can't seem to shake that frog...
@@Thefeatherbender as long as that is all.. your a good guy Barry and the world would be a bit sadder if you were gone.. so don't make me sad ya hear!! as my dad used to say.. "don't make me come over there!".. Stay healthy and I pray that dang cough leaves soon..
Thank you. Now I get how to keep it on the string. I am a newbie and I was having a hard time with dubbing.
Hi Nancy, good just keep practicing and you'll get it. Let me know how you get on.
Thanks Barry - always enjoy "how-to" videos! Surprised that you didn't mention dubbing direction - being right-handed, I prefer to dubb clockwise so that the dubbing noodle stays tight as I wrap. Cheers!
Hi Hank thanks, I think you'll find I do mention spin bobbin anti clock wise for a flat profile and then spin it clock wise with the loop, but maybe not when twisting on the dubbing with finger and thumb, I always forget something when filming, too many thing to think about at the same time...
@@Thefeatherbender thanks Barry, I probably just missed hearing it. ATB!
Sure is a nice vise there. I'm pretty torn between the Swiss Vise and the Regal Revolution.
It's a great vise.
Nice
Thank you.
Loving the technique videos! Could you possibly do one on dry fly wings?
Thanks Dave, yes many more to come, I will cover all the basics and then some...
Great instructional video! Any recommendations for keeping the elk hair aligned on the top of the hook for an Elk Hair Caddis? I'm new and haven't found the trick to that even after cleaning and stacking.
Thanks Mickey. Yes I have an easy technique for that: czcams.com/video/kRouJsJcPJo/video.html
What materials would I need to tie a selection of trout and salmon flies. Good tutorial on dubbing techniques. The flies I tie are a little cock eyed but seem to attract fish for some odd reason. Thank you for your input.
Hi Paul, may I suggest that you purchase one of my recent books and make use of the material suggestions. www.amazon.com/Feather-Benders-Flytying-Techniques-Comprehensive/dp/1510751505/ref=sr_1_1?crid=2KTL8M5RTT8D1&keywords=barry+ord+clarke&qid=1676524637&sprefix=%2Caps%2C161&sr=8-1
Very informative, thanks. I seem to do better with tying in a dubbing loop as opposed to splitting the thread. What are your thoughts on that?
Thanks Gordon, Splitting the thread works extremely well when you are working with, finer materials, such as dubbing, CDC, marabou etc, it makes a much finer dubbing brush than a doubled loop, but if you intend spinning heavier materials like, deer hair, rabbit fur etc you have to make a stronger dubbing loop, otherwise the split thread will break. Practice a little, you will find that it is better. Good luck.
👍👍
Thanks!
Just something to make you laugh I tried the trick off a quick pull to snap the thread as you do but I pulled and snapped the hook lmao think I got a bad hook but was funny great tutorial vid
Wow, Brilliant! I hope that it was a bad hook, sounds like it was over tempered, they should bend not snap!
Barry hi. Great clip as usual. Everything I know comes basically from watching you and reading your book. Quick question/s: I bought a whole bunch of materials ex a guy who is no longer interested in tying. Part of it was dubbing which came in packets labelled: spike, fine, fur and so on - Q when does one use what type specifically? I knw this series is re techniques, perhaps you can address this Q on another clip re materials when dubbing. It's good to knw the technique/s but equally important why the choice of material for a specific fly. Hope I'm not asking one of those 'how long is a piece of string' questions. Love your work.
Hi Luiz, thank you, so pleased that you are finding them helpful. Yes lots of different dubbing's! Generally speaking if its very fine=dry flies, spiky=nymphs but also thorax on dries and emergers, If it's coarse=nymphs. Other than that its difficult to say without seeing the dubbing or knowing what its made from. As a guide any water born animal, mink, otter, muskrat, beaver all have water repellent fur, so good for dry flies... I will be doing a video on dubbing with natural materials soon. Good luck.
@@Thefeatherbender thanks Barry. A good broad explanation. Appreciated. Look forward to more videos from your desk.
So you can use the last technique to add some feathers fibers whitout the stam? And how thick should be the thread to ise it?
Yes, the thread should be about 55 denier.
Of particular note and perhaps not for the beginner is using a long clip and the third technique, can dub with maribou.
Hi Brian, yes, I have already done a video with clips and marabou, but next will be dubbing with natural materials, fur, hair and CDC.
@@Thefeatherbender I missed that one or probably would have linked it in my comment, digging it out now, often, I find your general methodology to be better than mine. lol
@@Thefeatherbender This one? czcams.com/video/ShuWsnX17jkh/video.htmlttps://czcams.com/video/ShuWsnX17jk/video.html
I find it difficult to dub with ice dub
Ice dub is best spun in a dubbing loop Ryan.
Good presentation but you never seem use wax ,why is that
Hi Stuart, I use wax all the time, I even make about 2kg of tying wax every year, I have 5 bee hives. There will be a tutorial on wax as well later.
Ok thanks for the reply ,very interesting you have Bee hives ,I have three Langstroth hives but dont use the wax for fly tying ,just harvest .Sounds like I am missing out
most dubbing is ok for me to put on but Squirrel is awful! it has to be darn near soaking wet!
Don't wet it! with squirrel and other difficult hairs and furs it's much easier to slit your thread and spin the hair into a dubbing brush.
@@Thefeatherbender just tired it. Grey squirrel into a split thread dubbing loop thing 70 denier....has to be the worst way to do it...lol. Or more likely I just suck at it haha.
