Good tyings, when things have ben tough in the past I have been known to try a blob or two, my tyings of them are not as good as those though. Nice dense fritz and personally I like the tails, nothing wrong with introducing a bit of movement.

Nice Flies

Personally I like a tail on some of my blobs. I fish a lot of these flies and I do very well with a small marabou tail. But I would also tie some with a flash tail as well.

Only having a laugh mate. If you want to fish a blob, and it is allowed, knock yourself out.
