Classic Coat
Comparable to Gink® this classic non-silicone-based floatant floats
flies longer than silicone-based gels. This clear paste liquefies at
body temperature and becomes a semi-solid again when immersed in cold
water, repelling moisture from your dry flies or streamers. This floatant
has a human odor scent mask, is environmentally safe, and leaves no
oil slicks. ½ oz. bottle capped with a ribbed black cone top
SiL-Gel
Comparable to Aquel or Orvis HY-FLOTE™, this silicon-based, temperature-stable
floatant maintains a constant light gel-like viscosity through a wide
temperature range. This formulation is our favorite
floatant, it’s a thicker and less free flowing but keeping your
fly afloat longer. Recommended for dry flies and for yarn strike indicators.
Not recommended for CDC flies. ½oz. bottle capped with a ribbed
black cone top

Bug Dust
Comparable to Frog’s Fanny™, this lightweight white powder
brings soaked dry flies back to life and makes nymphs more life like
by creating a realistic gas bubble effect. The product comes with
a lightweight brush attached to the lid that allows you to accurately
and delicately apply the powder to the wings of a drowned fly. Our
fly dust will not leave a slick on still waters or spring creeks.
A great product for delicate dries and those with CDC. 1 oz. bottle.

the lid and shake. Ideal for re floating your Indicator Fly, or Indicator.

spring creeks. A great product for delicate dries and those with CDC.
