GINK FLY FLOATANT

Ensure your dry flies always maintain a flawless presentation with Gehrke's Gink Dry-Fly Floatant, the undisputed benchmark for fly buoyancy. Trusted by generations of serious trout anglers, this premium floatant paste quickly resurrects the natural floating properties of your flies. Simply rub a small drop between your fingers and apply it directly to the dubbing, hackle, wings, or legs of any dry fly pattern. Gink penetrates deeply into both natural feathers and synthetic fibers, forming a highly effective, long-lasting barrier against water absorption. Completely safe for the delicate aquatic ecosystems you fish, this formula comes packaged in a rugged bottle with a convenient dispenser cap designed to eliminate leaks in your vest, pack, or pocket

Rocky Mountain / Wyoming Strategy: When matching delicate midge or blue-winged olive (BWO) hatches on cold, high-altitude Wyoming waters like the Encampment River or the North Platte River near Casper, a heavy chemical smell or oily slick will instantly spook highly educated trout. Gink's eco-friendly, odorless paste formula is ideal for these technical situations because it restores buoyancy without leaving an aggressive oil sheen on the water's surface. Because our mountain mornings start near freezing before heating up rapidly under the intense high-country sun, carry this paste in an accessible pocket close to your body to keep it warm, pliable, and easy to apply during early-morning hatches.
