Just the boa. I builds up nice, and when wet it mats down, those multi colors look lke that wet but they mat back and glob around the hook. When I bought the stuff I was hoping it would flo in the water. The matted down look forms almost the exact shape as a bass tube jig.
I have purple, red/orange, white/black, blue/teal/yellow, and thats it. They just came out with a ton of new colors. Now I need to go to the store, damn it .. http://www.bernat.com/product.php?LGC=boa&SPP=30 Check out mallard, and hawk. OH YEAAAAAA I have parrot, pheonix, ostrich, and peacock.
