I'm looking for at least 10 to take part in a grayling fly swap run along the normal lines with some the extra flies added to a collection which when we have a good box full will auction on the forum with the proceeds going to the fishing for heroes charity. Not sure if the is enough interest so we'll give it until the 30th to see the take up. I'll take the flies in, sort them and then send them out. All flies must be in by the end of November.
Simon.

Sounds like a nice idea.
I think you will find you'll have more than 10 volunteers though Simon.
Could you PM your address please & I'll jiffy bag you mine over, Cheers.
Stevie.

I sold all my fly tying gear a couple of years ago when I moved... but am just about to get kitted up again, so if I get everything in time I'll add my wee contribution too  |

I will add a few if you don't mind a few dogs dinner type flies. Mine don't win any beauty contests but do occationally catch fish.

OK, this is how the Grayling fly tie and swap will happen. Each of us will tie 10 flies of the same pattern and send them to me by the 30th Nov. The extra flies will go into a box to build up an auction prize with any monies taken going to fishing for heroes. As the flies arrive I'll photograph them and post them into this thread, you can then modify the picture post with your tying instructions and fishing tips. Once I have received all posts I'll sort and send them out to you. I'll PM you with my address, please include you name and address with the flies.
Simon.

Simon,
Since you are having a charity auction for a good cause, I will send one of my hand-made custom furled fluorocarbon tenkara lines to add to the mix if you want.
