The Semperfli Kapok Dry Fly Dubbing Dispenser in Natural Colors is the ultimate collection of dry fly dubbings for your stealthiest, most realistic patterns. When dubbed into split thread Semperfli Kapok Dubbing retains its buoyancy and helps dry flies float better than any other natural dubbing. It is absolutely ideal for tiny dry flies and provides perfect definition instead of an explosion of bulky material on a small hook. Kapok (Ceiba pentandra) is a natural fiber, it has been available for many years growing throughout the tropics where it is cultivated for its fibers. It is a moisture-resistant, quick drying, resilient, and buoyant fiber and weighs only one-eighth as much as cotton. Kapok has historically been used in life jackets and life boats, supporting as much as 30 times its own weight in water.
