Here's a picture :

TWEEZIE F UP VARIANT (FRITZ LURE) GREEN & GLOW & WHITE on eBay (end time 06-Nov-10 22:17:38 GMT)

the original was tied with Dave Downie's green glow fritz. It's a cat variant basically.

Charlie

the fritz glows and changes colour in the water and popular to some peoples beliefs yes the Fritz is mines and dyed by me and always has been mine, unlike claims by others.

I had a laugh with the flys inventor last night about it Arthur Wilkie. And he once again assured me that it was tied using and still is my Fritz

Best Rgds..Dave

And the picture that Charlie has linked is using my Fritz as i know the seller. Anyways many variants and pictures on my site

tight lines

Dave

Lets be honest here! Any fritz combi would be a catcher... lureflash F24 fritz was always a safe bet. Sold as yellow it would light up as a kinda green-chartreuse in the water. It had pearl mylar through it (pearl currently not in vogue at the moment) even more reason to fish it, eh! Black and green, white and green and indeed any popular colour combi would work with the Fk Up. Fished beneath a bung in proven deadly colour combinations, that wriggly marabou tail when investigated by newbys is too much for them to resist. Basically a fritz lure tied on a curved hook around the bend. I'm sure somebody done a SBS on here with goose biot cheeks.....You couldn't call it anything new although it's effective...a Howwood creation, correct me if im wrong pls
