Thumbs up big reel 9mm uv fritz

Hi guys,i`ve just got some of the new range of fritz coming out from the Big Reel.It`s not a straggle fritz but is 9mm UV fritz.This fritz looks great and is brilliant to tie with.So far i`ve tied mini lures,midget gems and rabbits with it. I`ve seen it used as thorax on ptn,montana nymph and cruncher.I got 17 different colours and i think there is more to come.Next Saturday can`t come quick enough for me to try out some of the patterns tied with it!! Andy

Bought some of the new synergy plus 10mm fritz in uv gold and silver 2 weeks ago, from tackle and tying , tyed up some nice dabblers with it, bought various colours from them, it goes on general sale on Monday at £2.50 per pack.

Looking for an edge, I think this material wll do just that.

Will start doing my own
Why did you not get it direct from Brian himself? Was it micro straggle gold you bought or the bigger stuff?His new fritz is`nt a straggle.I`m well impressed with it.A few flies are in the post to fellow member Alimar and he`s going to put them on forum soon as he can.Andy

Sam, I think you could be right about the "edge", this stuff looks great.

I ordered it yesteday afternoon, 1pm, from Tackle & Tying, the postie has just dropped it at my door this morning, 08.45!!! Outstanding Service!!!!!!!!!

I cannot recommend T&T enough.

Gonna tie some flies with it and will post some results!!!

Cheers
Carl
