Loon University: How To Use Top Ride with Pete Erickson

In this episode of Loon University, Pete Erickson of Team USA Fly Fishing breaks down a common question: When should you use Top Ride, and when should you use Fly Dip?

TOP RIDE
Top Ride is a dry fly angler's best friend.  Known as “Shake and Bake” by world class guides, this desiccant (drying agent) and powder floatant is fast and easy to use. A fly (still attached to the leader) goes in wet, and a few shakes later comes out dry and coated with a powder floatant.

FEATURES
-Powder floatant and drying agent in one
-Easy to use shake application
-Large cap opening for any size fly
