misfish Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) Finding ribbing and even tubing around here is next to none and driving down to Sails just for that is not worth it right now. Found this kids craft tube stuff . Figured I would see if it would work . It is a bit on the stiff side, but I found by pulling it through your fingers, creating heat friction, it softened up and stretched nice and worked great for soft tube or ribbing . Now if I could find it in different colors . Still working on my stone fly tie . Getting there . Need to be more patient .😠 Edited March 29, 2020 by misfish 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fisherman Posted March 29, 2020 Report Share Posted March 29, 2020 Ah you pulled that tubing over the Simcoe bugs? That would really negate having to dip them in nail polish or similar, great idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
