Very nice tying! But Aerodry, despite its over inflated price, neither looks better or performs better than ordinary polypropylene yarn, para post or plain old Antron! What's more, the alternatives are available in a much wider range of colours. I have 2 crappy cards of Aero, but rarely use it now. My favourite post material is Burnt Orange Antron. You can't dye Aero, and if you try to colour with a marker it comes off on your fingers and transfers to the rest of the fly!
Aeros' main claim is that the fibres are hollow, but the fibres are to fine for that to be a genuine plus factor anyway. You can buy hollow fibre pillows for less than a fiver at Tescos! A few thousand flies maybe?
Even by Tiemco standards, this product is really taking the p!ss!
