PAYETTE PASTE An outstanding floatant in paste form. Gives hackles and leaders a silky-smooth, water-resistant coating. Softens when warm, but won’t run or leak. PRODUCT TIP: This is the best all around product for floating leaders and tippets as its consistency stays put on monofilament. We like to apply this to our trout leaders when fishing fast water with dryflies to ensure both the tippet and the fly stay high on the surface.
