Leland on Loon Dust Floatant
This desicant silicone powder will refloat wet dry flies and add buoyancy to fresh ones. Loon Dust has micro sparkles added to it to attract more fish to your flies. Loon Dust is great for treating dry flies tied with CDC (cul-de-canard) feathers, which regular paste or liquid floatant mats down. This dust will be an indispensable addition to your fly vest once you have vainly tried to float dry flies in the rain without it. In fact, you and the trout will both think that Loon Dust is made by the Pixies, once you see how good it makes your flies float, with just a wee bit o' that magic sparkle!
Specifications:
- Silica powder dries and floats dry flies
- Adds micro sparkle to flies - air bubbles on nymphs
- Brush applicator
- 1 oz. plastic bottle
Leland on Loon
As with so many other manufacturers, Loon was born from a necessity for
better fly fishing equipment. An avid fly fisherman and talented
chemist, Dan Paradis knew he could develop fly and leader amendments
that were environmental friendly to boot.
Dan started tinkering with a basic piece of fly fishing equipment, the
sinker, and developed Loon's Deep Soft Weight, a lead-free, non-toxic
weight in putty form as an alternative to split shot. It was an
immediate hit with anglers from coast to coast. In 1993, he developed
and patented Loon's Biostrike, a reusable, biodegradable strike
indicator putty. Again, fly fishing enthusiasts raved about Loon's
product. Dan and his legacy at Loon Outdoors continue to introduce
revolutionary, award winning fly fishing products to the industry,
pushing the market towards more environmentally friendly fly fishing
products.
Loon on their Loon Dust Triple Duty Powder Floatant
Triple duty treatment powder floatant. A non-white fumed silica powder floatant and sparkle attractor with brush applicator. Apply to dry flies for ultimate floating power. Use on nymphs to create a realistic air bubble effect. Great for CDC. Can also be used on fly lines for easier pick-up and to accelerate casting speed and distance. Apply by working powder into fly with brush applicator.

While casting a caddis on the Boise River in 1991, Loop founder Dan
Paradis knew he could combine his knowledge of chemistry with his love
of the outdoors and passion for fly fishing. He left his successful
career as the technical director of Dexter Aerospace to begin a new
journey. Loon Outdoors is that journey and Loon's concept is simple; to
create environmentally-friendly fly fishing products that perform at an
exceptional level.
Dan will be missed; but the best way Loop knows how to honor him is to
continue the journey. To continue living and pursuing a life filled with
our passions. To continue providing environmentally conscious fly
fishing products that better enable fishermen to find success in all
their fly fishing endeavors. Thank you, Dan. Thank you for living a
courageous life, and showing us the joy of pursuing our passions. May
you be honored by Loon Outdoors and all the lessons we learned from your
life.
