Zonkers your dogs body fly got torn to bits by the trout on the monnow yesterday! I fished it until it fell apart (probably 10 fish). great fly!


Only 10 fish !!! I will have to tie them better.

As you organised the swap I have put some extras in the post for you , should last you a couple of trips.

I didn't mean it that way Zonkers! It was a great fly and well tied. And 10 good size brownies is a more than average lifespan for the hackles on a dry fly in my experience. But if you have already posted them, I won't say no to the gift! Thank you!!!

I have sent the 4 extras I tied for the swap( I picked the best ones for the swap)

They are better of in your fly box (where they will be used) than sitting on my flytying desk waiting for me to have a clear up.
