saltwater fly care

[DRUMCORPFAN]

just picked up some saltwater flys this weekend from fisherwoman, any special care for these flys after being used.

hey leo, dont know to much about flies but what i would do is just put em in a plastic box with holes and and just let em air dry.i know they use wax to make them float for dry flies not sure it would make a difference though,for salt water.

I always wash my gear including flies when I get home. Salt chews them up like it does everything else.

I always soak my flies & plugs in a SALT-X solution then rinse off with tap water then let dry before returning back to the storage box. Rust is never a problem

If they are made with epoxy keep them out of the sun and heat as much as possible.
