Leather Fly Floatant Bottle Holder / Caddy – Choice of Colours
£25.00
This handmade leather fly floatant holder is great for keeping your floatant right where you need it, when you need it. It’s made with a choice of different coloured Badalassi Carlo Pueblo leather which has a lovely rustic appearance. The leather has a slightly rough feel, however when this has been used over time it will naturally become silky smooth and have a natural patina. This change is texture and colour is shown in the colour options picture.
The pictured floatant holder is in dark brown.
This version of our floatant bottle holder comes with two clips; a carabiner made from marine grade 316 stainless steel and a stainless steel cable link with twist barrel connector.
We know it holds Gink and Loon Aquel bottles, as shown in the pictures but will hold most others. The hole for the bottle nozzle is 15mm across. If you would like a holder for a different sized bottle, with a larger nozzle then please let us know via the “Order notes” section when checking out. There is no extra cost for this.
To secure the bottle in the holder, remove the bottle cap and slide bottle through the leather loop and hole in bottom of caddy. Then replace the cap on bottle. Attach to vest, pack, etc using one the supplied connectors.
Bottle of floatant not included.
All our products come with a lifetime guarantee and free UK delivery.

Another miniature triumph. Beautifully put together and perfect for the job. I have spent far too much time, and dropped far too many flies, bottles, glasses and heaven knows what else fumbling for the ever evasive floatant bottle. This lovely little addition has simplified my life, my pockets are free

If you fish dries, you’ll obviously use some sort of floatant, and re-apply it frequently. I use Gink, Frog’s Fanny and CDC oil depending what I’m doing and how I’m feeling, but I’ll always have a Gink hanging off my waistcoat, as I imagine most of us do.
I’m very much a fan of traditional materials, and appreciate smaller businesses making items in a traditional manner.
I was looking for another floatant holder and came across Wylye LeatherWorks after a google search.
I ordered up one of their new floatant holders, arrived today and whilst some of you might be thinking, it’s just a Gink holder, well, yes, but it’s a lovely bit of leather, well made and comes with two methods of attachment. Either use the small karabiner or the wire loop.
In these days of mass produced items, made from cheap leather, or synthetic material, in a far away sweat shop, it’s nice to buy a proper item made with proper quality leather by someone local in the traditional way. I don’t know the owner of the company, but in my head it’s a bloke in a shed working with leather and hand tools. I like things made by blokes in a shed with hand tools. It’s the way it should be. ?
The price was roughly the same as I’d pay in a large online store or fishing superstore, so I know who I’d rather give my money to, that bloke in the shed, and I suggest you should too… ?

Arrived the other day and I’ve been out with it now. I like it. I got it to replace an old nylon one which had seen better days. This leather one looks much nicer and works just as well. Overall happy.
