Quick take
A flashy synthetic dubbing with bright sparkle ideal for attractor flies and nymphs.
Hareline Ice Dub in gold is a synthetic dubbing packed with fine, reflective fibers. Tiers work it into a dubbing loop and brush it out to add sparkle to nymphs, streamers and attractor patterns. It suits anyone building flies for trout and panfish who wants a bit of flash in the body or collar.
Best for
- Attractor pattern nymphs
- Steelhead and salmon flies
- Low-light water conditions
Skip if

- You prefer natural dubbing
Strengths
- High flash fibers attract fish in cloudy or off-color water

- Durable synthetic material resists water absorption
Trade-offs
