Experience the triumphant return of the true king of the fly bench with Overton's Wonder Wax, back in production after a 30-year hiatus! Originally hitting the world stage in 1974, Glenn Overton’s legendary creation quickly became the absolute gold standard by which all other fly tying dubbing waxes are measured. Far superior to cheap hardware store toilet seal wax, petroleum jelly, or sticky, gooey competitor blocks, this premium formula functions as a highly specialized magnetic adhesive. It is engineered to transfer seamlessly onto your thread, sticking precisely when and where you need it while leaving your fingers completely clean and residue-free. Personally overseen by Glenn himself to meet his exacting standards and original vision, it allows you to effortlessly touch-dub fine underfurs, capture slippery synthetics, and build tight, flawless bodies on everything from micro midges to giant articulated streamers. Rest assured your purchase is the genuine article—the single best dubbing wax ever developed is finally back.
Spun bodies on tiny tailwater midges and scuds are a mandatory year-round requirement when tackling the highly technical
Grey Reef and Miracle Mile stretches of the North Platte River right here in Casper. Local tiers are thrilled that
Overton's Wonder Wax is back because it makes technical touch-dubbing with ultra-fine synthetics like
Hareline Ice Dub completely effortless. Our arid, low-humidity Wyoming climate can cause loose synthetic dubbing fibers to fly off the thread due to static electricity, but a light swipe of this magnetic wax locks the material instantly to your UTC thread core. It holds the fibers tight through multiple guide casts and toothy trout strikes without washing out or gumming up your premium hackles.
