[VFB] Re: tying wax..again--Overton's

[Joyce's crafts and flies]

For what it is worth, I must admit that I really love Overton's wax..he has just the right amount of resin to his wax base so when you touch it with your fingers and put it on your thread, it leaves just the very finest coat of the resin with little of that sticky, waxy, buildup that you get with other waxes. So, when he is in production again, may I suggest that you get a tube from Byard..his newest batch is superior even to that old green tube that you have been using. I've never had a more "perfect" wax than this newest batch. It just may change your mind about using wax. And, it is really neat when you tie with plain old polyester sewing thread for bigger flies.  No affiliation..just a very happy satisfied friend. Joyce
