FISHINGmagic VERDICT

No arguments with any of the manufacturer’s description but they don’t mention one very important point: It’s perfect for fly tying.

When you need that extra tough coating on buzzers then reach for the Icky. Those trout will need teeth like Jaws to break through that skin and your buzzer will last much, much longer than is usual, which is great on those days when the rainbows are really going for it and snapping away at the fly on every retrieve.

I’ve used Icky for years on my end rigs and I’ve always been glad of that added security it gives knots without any ill effect on the material.

The brush makes it so easy to apply with real precision, which is a real bonus for me as I’m that guy you usually see having his fingers prised apart in hospital!

Great stuff, I have a bottle in every tackle box.
