Horseshoes 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2011 While I have the time I would like to thank everyone for joining this swap. I am very pleased to say we have a global swap happening. So I will remind everyone that the time factor has taken this into consideration. I, personally think the fact that we are swapping over a great spanse of the globe is a great thing. For our friends in Britain..stay safe. fly_fischa hope you are dodging the troubles in your travel. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Horseshoes 0 Report post Posted August 16, 2011 I had to resend the dubbing out to fly_fischa again, it was returned for inaccurate postage. It was my fault. Sorry fly_fischa and just wanted to keep everyone in the loop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Li'lDave 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2011 (edited) I had to resend the dubbing out to fly_fischa again, it was returned for inaccurate postage. It was my fault. Sorry fly_fischa and just wanted to keep everyone in the loop. A packet of Black Web Series dubbing arrived down under this afternoon! Its so fine! I was hoping it wouldn't come to this But I think it's going to be a dry fly of some sort.... or maybe a soft hackle wet... I haven't a lot of materials at the moment... but I'll figure something out edit: definately a soft hackle wet I think... web dubbing for the body, maybe a red hotspot and a grizzly hackle collar... I had a few failed attempts at playing last night... so hopefully tonight will improve. Thanks Horseshoes! Edited August 18, 2011 by Li'lDave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Li'lDave 0 Report post Posted August 18, 2011 Sorry for the life story... I've had a play tonight.. the soft hackle just didn't work, and then I murdered a couple of pheasant tails... and then it came to me... something nice and simple... a black bead-head nymph with a red "hot-spot". I'll be away for 17 days come Sunday (at a construction camp)... but I'll be in Brisbane Sunday briefly so should be able to pick up more of the beads I need while I'm there. Will take my vise with me so I can tie them up of a night time... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
