saw a cople of vids on youtube, some nice looking flies using stuff called ez sparkle....anybody used it? anybody know where to get it or know a good alternative? i think i saw stuff called polymark somewhere.. was the exactly the same stuff but much cheaper, it seems to be available only in america?
im not sure what the stuff is exactly,wondering if the tulip stuff is the same idea or not someone got any info?...please share

Not sure if there is a Hobbycraft near you , but they have glittery stuff / Tulip paint in more flavours than you can shake a stick at.

Cheers guys!
Jay, not sure if 8"+ are classed as "Fry"
most are tied on 4/0-8/0 Tiemco 600SP for targeting Yellow Tail Kingfish in NZ.

Peter Morse came up with this pattern here's a link
Tying the "Fat Boy"


Work great for all predators, my goto fly for pike at the moment.....come February the NZ Kingfish are gonna get some! Nice fat head to push lots of water. the head can hide a fa lump of foam or lead to vary sink rates.

The Tshirt paint is great, i coat the head with Zapadapagoo II then the tshirt paint for an incredibly tough finish.

Thanks
Trev
