Did you ask John?

Hi Brian found it before you guys turned up and forgot to say to John. I thought it might belong to Katie Price (Jordan) going by the amount of marabou hanging out the sides lol.

On behalf of your fellow Brother's of the Angle, thank you for attempting to return the Prodigal Flybox to it's rightful owner.

And now, once again: Please, please, please everybody. Write your name and at least your phone number or email address on EVERY fly box you own!

I've found 3 fly boxes in the past 10 years or so. Each one of them would have been gladly returned had they contained the slightest clue who the owner was.

It'll look just great if it shows up in the post after you thought the box and everything in it had been lost forever.

Default Fly found

I was fishing my local lake on one occasion in the past, having a hell of a day, 4 hours into the day and not a pull, I lit my pipe and sat back to enjoy it, looking down on the grass in front of me was a very small fly, I picked it up and decided to tie it on the end of my tippet, the next two hours I had 6 fish, then the fly fell to bits, I went home, chuffed!! to bits....... Oh! yes, I tied 6 copies of that fly, but never had so much as a touch on it since ....
