Caddis Balloonhammer Barbless FMF Tactical Series

The Caddis Balloonhammer Barbless is terribly effective sedge imitation, virtually unsinkable and easy to spot with its yellow foam thorax.
Ideal for prospecting fishing and all the turbulent areas where a CDC fly will be invisible and quickly drowned.
