As someone new to fly tying I keep stumbling across names of lost materials that fly tiers of old lament. I’ve heard of and even had the painful joy of using some Overton’s Wonder Wax. A tube will usually set you back about $50 on eBay But now I’ve just heard of something called Chadwicks 477. Back to eBay I went and found a square still in bidding at $69.85!!! That’s a bit too rich for my blood, but it got me wondering. What other materials are long lost that people pine over? Do you have something special locked away only to be taken out when you want to tie the perfect fly? What is your holy grail of materials that you scour garage sales and flea markets in hopes of finding? -FlyTieDad
