Default F.a.b

Theres been a bit of chat about this pattern, from what i can gather it comes from the Change Team. It allows you to carry on fishing with a booby type fly when u have reached your limit, ( your to stop using boobies when youve had your limit when fishing a comp )

I hope ive given the pattern justice Jim

What i found when tying in the foam, was to taper it off and put a little slice in it so the foam dont spin round.

cost to make ,, about 20p or so

Is it just any foam you use or is it stuff you buy from tackle shops?
