spinning rubber hackle

Recommended Posts

Guest

does anyone know, or have any experience in spinning rubber hackle? this is the rubber legs for the foam spiders and such. i was told that you can spin it the same way you do deer hair, but havent tried yet. there are some nice patterns for a cased caddis that i would like to try that involves rubber hackle for the main body (spun of course) but i just havent got around to playing with it.

 

i was just wondering if anyone has tried this and could give some tips/hints as to the process.

 

thanks in advance

I dont see why you couldnt just put a bunch and spin it like deer hair, but I do know that you can trap it in a dubbing loop and do it as well.
