No problems Irvine. It's a bit different making ten flies all the same and can sometimes feel like a big chore! Hence why our swap won't be monthly and I might make the next deadline even longer than six weeks. It is nice when you get ten different flies back in the post!

Cheers

Quick simple effective flies are the best way for a swap :z16
I've done a few swaps now and that's what works best for me

I reckon we could do it quarterly that would seem reasonable
especially with 10 people at a time.

Let's see how this one goes :z16

I'll join and tie a pearly pennel size 14. This fly always serves me well.

Interesting Alex, I've been fishing something just like that for a few years  :z16 it's worth bunging in a turn or two of lead wire (at the head) just to help it drop through the water a smidgen quicker  :z17

Look forward to giving yours a hurl  :wink
