Default Bumble Swap

To get warmed up for the tying season I thought I'd arrange my first swap. Was going to suggest fry, but maybe we are a bit late for that so how about Bumbles.

Open to the first 9 (As I'm in!). So 11 flies please of your finest bumbles. (1 Fly to form a set for donation to Casting for Recovery)

Will sort out postage etc later.

Cheers
Ben

Brilliant idea Greenock, lost my mother to this disease 20 years ago and try and help associated charities whenever I can.
