Real Flashabou Products from Hedron

Flashabou, the original and still the best!

Flashabou seems to be a term much misused. Originally invented by Larry Dahlberg, it is deadly on the flies invented by Larry. The largest fly caught Pike that I know of in Ireland in ‘97 was 30lb 6oz. This fell to one of my Dahlberg divers. Unfortunately it wasn’t me casting it at the time. The original material has now spawned a whole range of new products with many uses for the innovative fly dresser. See review of Flashabou dubbing in Fly Fishing & Fly Tying.

Flashabou is only Flashabou when it comes from the inventor. We source these products from the original and still the best source. Generous packets when compared to the usual miserable amounts offered in the UK. . It does cost slightly more per packet than the little packets you normally see, but not a lot more. You do get plenty of product per packet. Good high impact packaging pegboard ready.
