Dyed red wool cut to length or chopped up in an old coffee blender.
This is easy to dub onto the thread.

You can also use seal fur or rabbit that has been dyed.

Not familiar with the fly or pattern - put up a picture and perhaps we can have a better look at what it is you need or how to approach it.

Hope this helps.

Hi. I have some Hare and SLF Dubbing in Red in stock on my website. Happy to send it to you to see if the colour is what you need. It is Hare Dubbing with SLF and very fine mylar for sparkle. Have used it as nymph, dry fly and streamer dubbing. Cheers
