Fulling Mill KJ Daddy – Orange B/L
The real foam daddy in orange with a twist – or lack of! Adding elk hair wings to the already deadly orange foam daddy gives this fly less spin in the cast, allowing your leaders to sit as perfect on the water as well as this foam daddy. The large footprint of this orange foam daddy will drag fish up to investigate, so keep your eyes peeled for swirls and bulges near your fly, a quick tweak or strip is all that is needed to convert these takes to fish in your net. Foam daddies are also great alternatives to blobs, FAB’s or boobies when fishing the washing line. The Jenkins’ Orange Foam Daddy is available in both size 10 and size 12 to help you best match the hatch. Tied on Fulling Mill Barbless Hooks.

Jake Russell –
This orange foam daddy works great on the washing line. The elk hair wings make it sit flat and natural. I noticed more fish reacting to it than with regular foam daddies. Easy to tie on and keeps the line steady.
Nicola Arnold –
Fished it in a slow-moving stream and saw several fish take the fly. The color stands out well, and the wings help it stay in place. A solid alternative to blobs when I need something simple and effective.
Victor Jones –
Perfect for matching the hatch. The size 12 fits well in my setup. The foam holds up well in the current and doesn’t break apart. I’ve used it for both dry and nymph presentations.
