James,
If you look on the fly tying section and go to page 5 there are some classics by a forum member called Dave Medlyn. He seems to know a thing or two about tying these patterns, I am not sure if he ties to order or not but might be worth a try. Eddie

My fly box went missing late last year and despite having revisited the river area i must now accept that the box is forever lost along with the above specific flies .
Look forward to receiving your thoughts.
Best Regards
Jim.
PS
To add further injury the origional flies were tied by Megan Boyd

Sweet jeysus. I would need serious counselling if I lost a box of Megan Boyd originals. I feel your pain.
