i think i have been taken wrongly here as i did not mean that we were to meet ,what i meant was like was said ,,we could arrange a set list of patterns to be done over the winter and have the nights that we will be doing these set out on the calender and during this people can add what knowledge they know about a certain fly or think y=they know
as Ive found out quite allot that i really know nothing as some patterns really have a deep history to them .
i intend for this all to be done on-line on the forum!!!!!!!
Scratch said.
Sorry if I'm missing something here UFM, but isn't this section basically an online tying club? Doesn't it by and large throw up all the 'features' you are talking about? Take Ben's 'Classics' series for example. Competitions too crop up from time to time. Fly swaps etc... Not to mention the countless flies posted and the ensuing cross-pollination and batting around of ideas. I think all we need is a few more folk to get pro-active rather than at best, reactive.
Now the season is drawing to a close, I think you'll see the tying section step up a gear or two. I'll do me bit and get a comp going if you like?
i do get what you mean scratch and yes their is allot of the said proposals already in place ,be it scattered about,
i just thought this would be fun for people and would help beginners to get involved in trying new patterns etc!!!
i may do a poll on this to see if we get more intrest .
