Buzzer Fly Swap

Barry Robertson · 01/11/2008 at 16:12

Seeing as everyone is tying up 11 flies i did not see the problem of allowing Tam to join the swap. As for the flies for casting for recovery i will tie up a nice selection for them.
Hope no one has a problem with this as it should not change anything.
Thats the max tiers now just incase anyone else was intrested.
Iam sure there will be a few more swaps to come

By all means if anyone did fancy doing 12 the extras would also go to casting for recovery!

Sandy Nelson · 01/11/2008 at 20:06

Rabbitangler - Peter you have a Pm

Cameron deBoth · 03/11/2008 at 17:26

Right, making a start now.

Changed my mind to what Im going to tie because

1 - I've never caught anything using the anti-static buzzer
2 - Have caught quite a few fish on the one I will be tying

to work

Cameron deBoth · 03/11/2008 at 21:34

Haha yea, looking forward to seeing Hamish's efforts as he is my Obiwan (taught me to tie)

Hamish Young · 05/11/2008 at 11:24

Don't expect too much - just a simple buzzer on a heavy-ish hook, bit short of time at the mo as I'm commuting to/from Buckie every day

So not my most imaginative pattern coming, but a good reliable one

Thats all they seam to want half the time , sometimes i wonder if they are really that fussy or if the are just happy if it matches the right colour/size and fished at the right depth

Barry Robertson · 06/11/2008 at 18:40

It was nice to get home today to see that the 5 sets of flies i have received are all different in many ways and are all tied to a very high standard!
Looks like your going to get a nice set of buzzers folks

Thanks again jim for also donating some tying hooks which i will share out evenly to everyone in the swap!

Barry Robertson · 06/11/2008 at 22:00

Just a little teaser of what to be expecting in your lucky bags

Tam Greenock · 08/11/2008 at 09:47

Thats six done, hope you guys like the one lm tying for the swap, probably not as well tied as the buzzer above but looking back at my diary for last 5 years or so it has been very successful for me from March to May.

Hamish Young · 08/11/2008 at 10:22

Mine went in the post yesterday afternoon - not my best efforts but I'm in a rush to get down to Dorset

Barry Robertson · 08/11/2008 at 13:50
