Thanks all

Hi Pignut

Do mean artificial flies for fishing? Not the dead ones that sit on the inside of shed windows...

I tie my own and always have spares... PM me your address and I will stick a dozen in the post gratis!

Reminds me of the joke about the Irishman who went into a pet shop and said "I'd like to buy a wasp!" The salesman replies " Sorry sir, we don't sell them". So the Irishman retorts "But you have loads in the window!"

Pignut, I've got a case of flies somewhere from long ago - if I can find them in reasonable time you can have them too.

I also tie my own - but have no specific patterns and don't even fish at the moment I just use it to while away an evening!

I would be really interested to see what you tie, and the materials you use etc Do you catch with yours?

Thanks
A

Thanks Andy

Good luck with them. I look forward to a full report.

They are pretty easy to tie, my big problem is speed. I take about 10 times as long as the 'professionals'. My wife can't be around me when I do them either... the air can go pretty blue...

Hi Alex - I can only tie when I can fish, I struggle finding the time to just tie them to fill my boxes.

Where I fish I tie 3 basic patterns, Pheasant Tail Nymphs, Olives and Hawthorns. I used to tie loads of different ones when I started out but one lacks the consistency from lack of practise.

Best wishes, Pete

Do you need any more? Do you want me to tie up any specific pattern? Let me know.
