Rene... Aunt Lydia's is 100% antron (trilobal?). Great sparkle...chop it up fine and add to natural dubbings for some extra flash...use it as body material wrapped on for buggers...as a trailing shuck on caddis...combed out as spinner wings (although I prefer Phentex for that). I don't think that it is necessarily a floater...probably more neutral buoyancy. Phentex floats like a cork. Joyce W has some great dubbing recipes that use Aunt Lydia's. (still meaning to get those recipes on the VFB Joyce) keep tyin'...byard Byard Miller Line's End Inc <http://www.linesend.com>
