The one guides call Shake and Bake. Desiccant and powder floatant formula for flies. Simply place soaked flies with tippets attached into the container and shake. This removes water and coats the fly with powder floatant in one easy step. Like Aquel, will not leave a slick on still waters or spring creeks. If you fish the hatches of large flies, such as stoneflies or fish dries for steelhead, this is the floatant for you. Highly recommended for use with CDC flies.
works well for a few casts. blow off excess water before putting fly in container or desicant will saturate quicker. container doesn't last long

Been using this a couple seasons now. It works as advertised and brings a fly back very easily. Especially good for hackled dry flies you want t ride high. Gel is a good compliment when you'd like to control where you apply the floatant.

A great product that serves its purpose well. I work as a guide and routinely use this product to bring life back to wet dry flies.
Just got back from a backcountry fly fishing trip in the Smokey Mountain National Park. I used the Top Ride for the first time. It is great. Dries the fly and does not leave an oil slick on the water.
