I get lots of questions about dubbing, which is a simple process that we sometimes complicate with hundreds of different blends and as many opinions on how to apply it. But it's an essential skill in fly tying, so Tim [35:18] and I spend a whole podcast exploring types of dubbing, when you would use them, and different methods of applying this essential material. Tim is always a fun guest and this one is no exception. In the Fly Box this week, we have a some great tips from listeners and of course plenty of questions, including:

A great tip from a listener on how to estimate a fly line size using a kitchen scale.

Can I add head cement to the head of my Elk Hair Caddis?

When you carry extra lines to the river, do you put them on extra spools or carry extra reels? And where do you put them?
I have some 20-year-old tippet I was given. Should I use it?
Do you have any recommendations for easily transferable materials that can be used for fry flies as well as streamers?
A tip from a listener on how to safely carry a full-size camera when fishing.
Where do baby carp hide? I never see them.
