Nobbler Black

A fun little streamer pattern that used to be hugely popular in Iceland. It still is of course, but over the last few years other patterns have perhaps overtaken it.
The Nobbler is tied in multiple colors. The black version is probably the most common one, although orange, white, pink and olive versions are popular as well.

The Nobbler was such a popular pattern in Iceland that it became a common misconception that the pattern was originated in Iceland. But of course, it’s basically a variant from the the Dog Nobbler, and even the Woolly Bugger.

This fairly simple pattern will be a great addition to your box.
