Claimed by George Gherke's as the “world’s best dry fly dressing,” a statement backed up by its incredible popularity, this floatant is the ultimate solution for keeping your flies riding high and dry.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe legacy of Gink Floatant is built on the expertise of its creator, George Gherke. He saw a need for a superior dry fly dressing and created a product that would stand the test of time, earning a global reputation for performance and reliability.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe formula has been trusted for decades, making it a go-to choice for serious dry fly anglers everywhere. This floatant has been made from a special gel formula, a silicone-based concoction with a very particular gravity of 0.77%. This ensures it floats on water, giving your flies incredible buoyancy that keeps them on the surface. Unlike other floatants, the formula is designed to not cake hackles and fibres together, which prevents your fly from clogging up and eventually sinking, saving you from hours of frustration on the water.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Gink Fly Floatant is praised for its ease of use and high float ability. It allows you to precisely apply it onto specific areas of your fly pattern with a precision nozzle.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSimply apply a small amount to the parts of your fly you want to float—such as wings, hackles, and para posts—and rub it into the dressing with your finger and thumb. This allows your flies to ride high, giving you the ability to skate them on the surface, creating more of a wake and drawing more fish up to take your fly. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe team at Angling Active's top tip is to add a small amount onto the back of your hand and touch your fly in it to avoid getting unwanted floatant on your leader material, which you don't want sitting on the surface film. Less is more when applying this floatant!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Gink Fly Floatant is available in a 1\/2oz bottle and comes with a secure locking cap design with a precision nozzle for easy application.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKey features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSilicone based dry fly floatant\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eUsed by fly fishing anglers worldwide for over 40 years\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eEasy to apply\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eDoesn't leave an oil slick around your fly\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIdeal for hackled and seals fur dries\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Miscellaneous","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55581971677569,"sku":null,"price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0608\/1521\/2798\/files\/1265992F-E13E-42C0-8951-8B00E0A0A2D0.webp?v=1785273575","url":"https:\/\/www.longsbaitandtackle.com\/products\/gink-dry-fly-floatant","provider":"Longs Bait and Tackle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
