You can always use one of the extra sets I tied to replace the missing set & keep the hooks that are left (the ones that would have gone to Clarky) for the next Charity bundle:z16

Thanks for that Alex , lets just see what happens anyway but wee have more than enough flies to complete the swap.
Any ideas what we will do with the spare set of flies ??? Maybe an auction and money raised to go to River Don Brown Trout Improvement Association ???
Just an idea  :wink

Aye Baz

Sounds good to me, if you want I could send you a few extras, just to make it interesting along with the Goldheads.

A very generous offer from one and all  :z16
I'd like to suggest that the funds raised from that sale are split 50/50 with the River Don Trust  :z17
Would that meet with everyones approval :?

Goldheads will be in the post Monday, along with a DVD for your PC.  :z16
Do you want some extra flees for the auction?

Alex

Barry Robertson

I think we should be fine for flies thanks Alex  :z16
Here is my thinking  :z6
Normally when we have 11 tiers you should expect 11 flies back to youreself including one of your own flies, i was planning on keeping that 1 fly that you normally get returned to youreself  that you tied youreself as no one really needs 1 of there own flies back.
This will give one more set of 11 and if i add them to clarks 11 that gives us 22 flies for auction which is more than enough i reckon  :z16

But seing as you contributed 4 sets we have 26 flies up for auction in a nice wee box  :z18

Barry Robertson

Well thats me not long home 1 day later than expected :mad
Anyhow will get flies posted off first thing tomorrow morning  :z16
If you were not involved in this one - you really did miss out on a cracking lot of flies  :shock
Thanks again chaps for getting the flies in  :z18 :z18

Iain Goolager

Baz,
What've you got planned for your trip home and new flies?

Barry Robertson

I will be fishing wherever it is not frozen so if you fancy a cast sometime just drop me a mail  :z16
Lots of new things to try this time home if i get the weather  :wink
Will be up the hills a fair bit looking for some new places to fish so will take some photo's  :z16

Mike Barrio

Photos of waters up in the hills are cool, very cool :z16

Cheers
Mike

Barry Robertson

Josh never completed his set either chaps but instead put in 11 shop bought flies which was a decent gesture!
Thats the flies in the post now anyhow  :z16
