Default WTF Blob

WTF Blob

Waggle Tail Fluorescent Blob

Here is my first Fly with the fritz from Flyfishing-UK, which I think is great.
I am Dissapointed with the UV biots from Trout Bum, I expected them to be much brighter, the dye does not have looked to have taken well.

Have you looked at the biots under U.V. light, the more likely way a fish would ?

I have not got a UV light so i cant test the UV the colours are just a bit faded.

I got the tails off ebay i have been looking for a while for them but have only been able to get them off ebay £1 for 5 They are called Flexi-Tail.

Do you expect UV biots to look bright
I have trout bums uv biots and under a uv light they look awesome
Never seen a blob like that before but good luck with it

Its just they look a bit faded under normal light I know they will look different under UV

I have never seen a blob like this before either waggle tails and blobs are my most successful fly's so I thought why not.
