Like all your posts. Why wet the materials before the dye? I dye fishhair the same way but have to leave the nylon dry so it deeply absorbs the color. Thanks Paul

[@hankvana2149]

Thanks Brian! I have a bunch of artic fox that needs dyeing, will give this a try!

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Would like to see how that turns out!

[@joeduca8582]

Simple, easy, inexpensive. Plus after dyeing your flies will cast through walls like the Kool-Aid pitcher in the commercials! Thanks, great instruction too.

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Comment of the day!!

[@joeduca8582]

@@flyfishingtheozarks Awesome!!!

[@mistyridgeflies3885]

Awesome video, been meaning to try this for a while now

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Thanks! You should try it, super easy.

[@ColinD0131]

Great tip dye video. I enjoyed this video

[@ColinD0131]

I have dyed things before. I use acid dye witch is a powder type dye a lot like kool-aid is. 2oz jar is big enough for dyeing multiple things. One thing you didn't touch on is degreasing the material before you dye. I believe that is important for dying anything. I use dawn dish soap and hot water let it soak for 5 minutes or more.

[@CalledCollectiveMedia]

Wow thanks Brian this was a very creative video that has some great tricks! Great work!

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Thanks!

[@rabbithole_flies]

great tying tips video as always!

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Thanks so much!

[@glennplatvoet7111]

O I never thought about it instead of my wife's hi end dies I'll try cool aid it might work for me . great job

[@johnnylightning1491]

OK Brian, you guys have got to be related, he doesn't talk either. Pretty cool technique. I've got a whole deer skin I can experiment with so I can make lots of mistakes and not miss much. Thanks!

[@PENFOLD1962]

Would dying with hot water work better in a Thermos Food Flask? It would keep it hot a lot longer! A great video thank you 👍😷👍

[@chrisbukowski9434]

Always great information

[@markbump9192]

Loved the video! But are you wearing Yellow Crocs? If so where can I get them!!!???

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Yep!! Love 'em. www.crocs.com/p/baya-clog/10126.html

[@munnsjf]

Could the same process be used to die a paintbrush for tails? Like microfiberets-tails.

[@jaceross8026]

Can you use this technique to dye plastic/rubber materials like clear midge tubing or rubber legs?

[@charlieboutin3341]

Great information! 👍👍 I’ve been wanting to try dying my own but wasn’t sure about it..now I know! Those were nice looking flies. Going to check out Matt’s site also. Thanks a lot! Had a good laugh when you Googled his name 😄 Have a great one Brian (Pit Bull was another laugh 😂)

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Might as well give some laughs with these Tips. 😉

[@whiskeyjin9]

Excellent !!

[@curtiscouch2260]

can you do the same with striped maribou?

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

You can!

[@jdclinans]

Thank you for sharing guys! Now the stores will be sold out of koolaid just like flash and slinky.

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

But only the cool colors. 😉

[@dustinhinds1999]

FYI, the dip and dye jars that glitter boat bass guys use to dye soft plastics works pretty darn good to color feathers.

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Good tip!

[@dustinhinds1999]

Yard Sale Please!

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Definitely coming.

[@matthewjones7935]

So Kool Aid isn't just for catfish bait!

[@flyfishingtheozarks]

Or drinking.....who knew??
