Default A Belated Introduction

Hi folks

Have been on the forum a few weeks now, but realise that I omitted to introduce myself formally.

My name is Tony, started fly fishing in 2008 after picking up a fly rod for the first time ever in 2007 on the wonderful Isle of Harris. Most of my FF experience has been on small English stillwaters, although I have also caught salmon and sea trout on Harris, which my wife and I visit for two weeks each year.

Highlights for 2010 include my first fishes on dries and taking up swff. I already own far more flies and fly boxes than I know what to do with, but perving over Clousers and Deceivers has taken this fetish to a whole new level, not to mention Klinks and other small Grayling-friendly creations....

My remaining ambition for 2010 is to fish for Grayling. I'm really looking forward to two sessions on the Kennet Carriers with ACW, as much for the social side as for the fishing. Looking forward to meeting some of you in the near future.

Regards


Tony
