J. Stockard has Rainy's foam cylinders. No 3/8" though.

Try Stone River Outfitters, I think they might carry them or Feathercraft. What are you going to use them for? I've come across some in that are a 1/2 inch in diameter in craft stores, but they're only good for flies like Bob's Banger's. I've got a bunch for foam cylinders up to 3/4 inch in diameter.

This fly's tied using a 3/8" inch cylinder. It could be either Rainy or Wapsi.

Thanks, I need them to tie Todd's Wiggle Minnow. Didn't find any at Michaels.

On the same topic I need foam cylinders but 6+ inches long?

I wish I could find cylinders that long myself. It would make it a lot easier to tie some large pencil poppers. You would probably need to find the source that produces the cylinders for Rainy and/or Wapsi and see if they sold them in ropes that could be cut to the length you want. There is a a foam insulation material that's round and used for insulation, but I've only seen it in gray, and it doesn't look like it could be shaped or would take colors well.
