Probably over charge for those materials too.

😂 Gday Mate is Australia 😂. The Fab and Blob is a competition fly here in the UK, used on still water i.e not rivers.

You know what, I mocked the S#*t out of these, until last winter, fished these instead of Boobies. Yep they catch NZ fish too. Found that orange or fluro yellow Fab colour on bright or slow days= Money! Cool tie.. cheers.

I hear arse used in sentences here like "Yea them cows down there by the crick are arse." That's Ohio for you.

Looks like Gritty from the Philadelphia Fliers!

[@MrLobstermash]

Lots of fly shops here in down under don't have jelly fritz, so I've taken to tying blobs and FABs with orange and pink marabou bodies. It's not as dense but the fish don't seem to mind.

[@ryantherock7664]

Yea pls tell us how to fish it?

[@MrJoeruggiero]

My favorite lake fly! It always produces fish. More often than not the strikes are very aggressive. Hold on tight.

[@jdominique70]

I spin and fly fish and these would be awesome on a bottom bouncing rig.

[@EscalanteFlyFlipper]

Fish it like a booby. Full sink or sink tip. All white is deadly for rainbows Splake like a fluoride purple/ black tail. As lakes ice up a deadly inlet stream into the lake bottom fly.

[@EscalanteFlyFlipper]

Fluoro typo.

[@tetonflytying8899]

If you split the foam it will flutter with a sexier action.

[@rhettmorgan6708]

So is this an egg imitation or....??? I’m confused on what type of presentation I would use to fish this. I feel like this would be a great fly for AK, but I’m just not sure how... haha Somebody help a guy out here please.

[@stovenpirates]

Was wondering the same thing. I’m thinking it’s fished on a sinking line and counted down to the depth you want then stripped ?

[@tetonflytying8899]

It represents zooplankton. They are microscopic but these are supposed to be clusters. Fish will key in on them in still waters.

Trout have this bad habit of putting colorful things in their mouths....

[@truthhurts6958]

This is great on the point with a couple of nymphs or buzzers on a floater, is the fish are high in the water
