Check out trade classifieds mate for the fritz. If you are after anything you can't see PM me as I have all sorts lying around.

Re hooks Hayabusa 751 size 6 or fulling mill short shank special 6s (same hook) are the best I have used. I don't supply these hooks but will be doing soon.

Here is a blob tied using my fritz and on a size 6 hayabusa 751 nickel.

The Hideoshi blob hooks are a bit heavy IMO, they are good for heavy blobs though and are very strong. The rutland hot orange blob fritz is no different to many other hot oranges and there is no secret to dying it.

Cheers

Shut up you muppet. I am not bothered about any "sale" - I was merely trying to help the bloke.

There are quite a few of these usernames with very few posts contributing with nonsense on this forum.

Just take a look at how many posts you have and how many I have, and then read through your posts - you will find that most of them are silly comments stirring things up.

Another thing allybally - you are not a trade member so you are NOT allowed a commercial signature link. Rules are rules. Remove it.

Is that right, there are loads of non trade members on here that have links to other peoples web sites, their mates or whatever, you going to tell them that as well, I wasnt aware that you couldnt link to a site that has no direct links to myself?

In that case if you didn't know I apologise......sorry but from what I seen it is statute that no commercial links are to be had by non trade members whether it is linked to them or not.

No I am not going to tell everyone else - they know the rules and should play by them. I only pointed it out to you as you seemed to have a problem with me posting.

Best regards and have a nice day

Sam
