I did find something by 3M called Clear Mounting Squares, that if it were
available in sheet form instead of half inch squares would make a decent sub.
I enjoy playing with it, just have to move away from the pattern trend set
by Harry's partner. The Gummy Minnow really isn't a bait fish imitation, but
soft plastic imitation and all the patterns I've seen have the extended body
which I don't like. I do more warm water fishing than cold water, so I'm
always working to come up with more realistic bait fish. There was an article
in one of the fly tying magazines a month or two ago where Harry Steeves tied
up a real nice looking Stonefly nymph using the stuff that I plan on adding
to my box.

Actually, the biggest playeers in silicone based technologies are Dow Corning and General Electric. 3M has a few products but not near as many as Dow Corning and GE. The stuff feals like a very lightly crosslinked silicone, but I've not played with it,only received afew flies. Still not sure if it's something I want to fool with.
