Last year Russell Hill, editor of Trout Fisherman magazine, said: "The blob craze has made trout fishing very easy. They are absolutely caning fish and winning every match. Gone are the days when you hear of a man winning a match with a dry fly or a nymph, because the younger anglers are going to these reservoirs and ripping blobs back at breakneck speed and catching their eight-fish limit in half an hour. There’s a massive debate going on." The technique is real simple, strip the blobs across the water to promote aggressive chasing from trout, when the water is warm this is a deadly technique.
Disco blobs with their intertwined synergy straggle fritz and variegated chenille are really hot. Blobs are known for their catching power stripped rapidly across the lakes and reservoirs.
