The grub bodies are very realistic and the wiggle tail adds a natural movement. I used permanent marker to match the water color and it held well. The material absorbs water nicely, making the fly look more lifelike in the stream.
Molly Paterson –
Great detail and flexibility. The synthetic suede feels smooth and the segmented body works perfectly with my fly patterns. I applied UV resin after coloring and it stayed intact through multiple casts.
Peter Gray –
The sizes are well defined and the water absorption is noticeable. I found the color transfer from marker to be reliable. A little more information on the exact size differences would be helpful.

Highly satisfied with the quality and realism. The wiggle tail moves naturally in the water. I used it with a dry fly setup and saw better engagement with the fish.
