To date Paul has released three models in his "Fat Boy Slim" series.

Firstly, a 60mm timber surface paddler with a choice of the aluminium bib being either painted or unpainted.

Secondly, a 40mm floating timber diver with both a shallow and deep version being available. These were sold under the name "Fat Boy Brim".

And finally, a heavy timber 100mm surface lure with a loud aluminium lip specifically designed to target the larger native species.

My photos below show a couple of the 60mm paddlers(one with a bib painted and the other unpainted) that tempted me. I reckon this body shape lends itself to a "Nose Toad Puff(er) Daddy" at some point in the future.

Regards,
Col

Here's a couple of the larger 100mm FBS's from the series. Do you notice anything unusual about the scale pattern on the lower lure?

Regards,

Water resistance if the scales were flared

Paul, that thick girl series is flawless. Been an avid admirer of your work , this is worth taking a double take,  it's just awesome.
