Hareline Crosscut Rabbit Strips - Purple #2

Hareline Dubbin Crosscut Rabbit Strips are a versatile fly-tying material designed for streamers, leeches and saltwater patterns. Crosscut construction—cut across the hide—lets the fur lay back and hug the shank after wrapping, producing sleek, lifelike palmered bodies and lively rabbit collars. Each pack contains four 8–9 in strips that wrap easily around hooks and shanks for immediate movement on the retrieve.

Key Features

• Crosscut Cut: Fibers lay parallel to the shank when palmered, creating a slick, tapered profile that reduces bulk.
• Natural Movement: Rabbit fur gives exceptional flow and lifelike action for streamers, leeches and saltwater flies.
• Ready-to-Use Strips: Four 8–9 in strips per pack (nominal 1/8 in width) — ideal for collars, tails and palmered bodies.
• Wide Color Range: Available in dyed and natural shades to match local baitfish and attractors.

Fly tyers choose Hareline Dubbin rabbit strips because the crosscut orientation simplifies wrapping and delivers consistent presentation across freshwater and saltwater patterns — from steelhead intruders and leech patterns to small saltwater streamers and jigs. These strips pair well with zonker strips, rubber legs, flash materials and epoxy heads; they work with standard tying threads and finishing resins to produce durable, high-action flies. Hareline's consistent cutting and color selection let you dial in the profile and movement quickly and repeatably.
