Missed you, unusually had a Saturday off, went casting  :grin


Rob, what have you used for the back on your Czechs?  I am still tinkering with mine for the FF&FT league, not quite fully happy with them as yet.

Cheers

Ben,
I use Grating Foil from Klima Products. I got mine from Somers (sorry ;)) but not sure if they have any left. You could try here http://www.lakelandflytying.com/2805/products/Jiri_Klima_Grating_Foil.aspx

On the packet it says available from Paul Vernon, Crystal River Limited...here is his website http://www.crystalriver.net/main.htm

I also use the Natural Foil from the same company. Not had such good results, but maybe you could get it to work for you.

Very easy to work with indeed!

2 x packs #32 Rusty Olive
1 x pack #10 Blue Wing Olive
1 x pack #19 Light Tan (the original Klink colour)
1 x pack #20 Dark Tan

drop me a line

Iain

All gone folks
