How do you slime a fly? Seriously I must be doing something wrong as I haven't experienced it. Do you set the trout right on top of your fly and hold it there or something?[crazy].
I have frog fanny and gink with me 100% of the time but haven't had to replace them in over 5years. I'm very lazy and inpatient with anything that slows me up on the water and use them just a few times a year at most. I generally stick with foam flies now that there are thousands of patterns widely available and not just the terrestrials. Don't have to stop every 5th cast and shake it in some little container to keep it floating.
Here's a link to a nice CDC free and floatant free foam mayfly made with a foam cutter http://www.riverroadcreations.com/MayflyBody.htm
