Spirit River UV2 Caddis Nymph

Spirit River UV2 Caddis Nymph is a dubbing prepared specifically for tying nymphs. Its UV2 technology makes the material more visible to fish in the ultraviolet range, adding a distinct visual quality to patterns where visibility is important. The Caddis Nymph designation also gives it a clear role at the vise: it is intended for nymph bodies and related details rather than being a general-purpose substitute for every dubbing.

Construction and use

Use it to form a nymph abdomen, thorax or fuller body. Apply it in small increments directly to the thread so the taper remains under control; for a larger, more textured body, build the material in a dubbing loop. Keep the profile suited to the proportions of the pattern.

• Purpose: dubbing for nymphs, particularly caddis-style patterns.
• Technology: UV2, for increased visibility to fish in the ultraviolet range.
• Applications: abdomens, thoraxes and controlled full-bodied nymph profiles.
• Tip: split the material into small portions and add them gradually to avoid creating an unnecessarily thick body.
