Because it keeps flies perfectly dry, it's an ideal asset for fishing the most selective fish sensitive to presentation finesse.
Using the Amadou Maxi is very simple: gently pinch the fly between the amadou pads, then press lightly to extract all moisture. For optimal drying, repeat this operation after each catch or after fishing in deep water. This product is perfect clipped to your belt with a carabiner or kept in a pocket for quick use. It is ideally used alongside a floatant gel and is suitable for all types of rigs, regardless of size or shape.
