Default Secret santa fly swap this year.

Any interest in a secret santa fly swap this year again lads? I've done this last two years thinking of doing it again this year.

Here is a link to last years thread.

Hi Greenock,

I'm up for it again this year, have enjoyed it in the past and its a good one for people of all abilities to get involved in.

Cheers

P.S. Would it be good to have a theme this year?

I'm up for a theme if everyone else is mate. Though a theme could be harder for new tyers.

Could either have a theme that is quite general nymphs, dries, stillwater, river flies etc, or be more specific but on something that is a fairly easy tie for people of all abilities e.g. buzzers (although that might have been done to death :P)

Put my name down please. Last year's santa was my first fly swop . So glad joined in.

Can't see any problem with a theme for new tyers, so long as mentioned above there's plenty of scope/flex. Nymphs for example covers a multitude of bugs some of which new tyers will be familar with-PTN GRHE...

Chris.

Excellent lads i'll put up a main thread for it then and put your names down. Could do nymphs/buzzers 6 of your fav nymph/buzzer with one of them going to c.f.r then 5 different nymphs/buzzers you use. so 11 flies in total everyone gets 10 back with the extra going to c.f.r?
