Dr Slick Jumbo Dubbing Twister

What it is

Dr Slick’s Jumbo Dubbing Twister is a large dubbing-loop twister built on a carbon fiber shaft with brass end weights. It’s lightweight in the hand but rigid with no flex, so it spins fast, smooth, and tight when you’re trying to cord up materials in a loop.

What to tie with it

Use it to twist dubbing loops into tight ropes for palmered bodies, or to build composite loops and dubbing brushes for bigger profiles. It’s right at home when you’re stacking multiple materials in a loop for bulky bodies and thick collars and need a consistent, tight spin.

Flies and the fish they're for

Galloup’s Dungeon is a big streamer that leans on brushed and looped materials for a wide profile, and it’s a staple for throwing at large trout in rivers and stillwaters. Intruders are built around substantial loops and brushes for movement and bulk, commonly tied for steelhead and salmon in Pacific Northwest-style swinging water. Senyo’s Laser Dub Minnow is a baitfish streamer where composite loops help build that full, swimming body, and it’s fished for trout and smallmouth, and also for inshore species when tied salt-ready. Krystal Buggers often use dubbed or brushy bodies and collars, and they’re a go-to for trout and panfish in ponds and rivers.
