Try looking for a product called Float-Vis. It is the same SAAP material that is used for SAAP Body Fur with the addition of waterproofing. The Flyfishing Shop at Welches carries the remaining (not much!) colors of SAAP Body Fur, so they might also still have Float -Vis from the same manufacturer. River City flyshop has also carried SAAP in the past.
I also have some day-glo stuff coming from a friend in the UK...if there is some hot pink in the lot, I'll send you a quantity. Not sure exactly what will be arriving, just promises of some eyeball-burning stuff! The dyers in the UK are more sophisticated about how to dye fluorescents...absolutely incredible materials, just based upon what I already have here.

Exactly my point Wes. Hopefully Ginger will have good news for us all : ). I
use the hot pink for all my parachute posts, I used to use poly yarn (that I
got from Lee Clark for free) but that manufacturer is no longer making the
pink. He gave me a sample of some of the antron and I love it. It works
better on the smaller flies and it is more vibrant as well.
Keeping fingers crossed

heck, that's all the fly tying product people do...buy in quantity and thenrespool and mark it WAY up.
