Every place i found the material had something along this line to say about it

This thick foam has open cells and a fuzzy texture. This foam sinks

 

Do you treat the foam to avoid sinking or load it up with floatant? or do they just mean if you wieght it down it will sink.

I usually do treat my flies with floatant

as I am not the greatest dry fly man out there.

I assumed the foam cells retain the floatant better

when dressing the fly.

Haven't had a problem with it sinking much.
