Hi!
I wonder whether it's me... or whether others have also noticed that flies that use a lot of deer or elk hair seem to rust quicker (dry more slowly.) It seems to happen to me especially with flies which use spun and/or packed hair, such as muddlers, bass bugs, and at times elk hair caddis (though not as often.)
Is there anything I can do to prevent rust besides letting them dry well before they are stored again?
I look forward to your replies and thank you ahead of time.
Tight lines and thread!
