Your friendly neighbourhood flyslinger

Flycasting, so simple that instructors need to make it complicated since 1685

Got a Q++ at casting school, wearing shorts ;)

Hi Rudy, perfect timing! They have travelled with me around the world many times now, which will give them unique magic qualities. I have some very special wooden Sexyloops fly boxes being sent to the UK. And amazingly the 2018 fly swap will finally happen this month. I think next time someone else should do it. :)

Cheers, Paul

Looking excellent and we should have this swap all complete by this coming weekend. I don't think that there has ever been a 5 year swap. I'll need addresses and I need to know who's fly is who's! There are five sets, one for every year of the swap. Perfect!

Cheers, Paul

It's actually really good to have five of every fly. This means we will fish them. When you get one of every fly you tend to hide them away. Stunning flies there too. All very fishy indeed. And they really are the most travelled flies of any swap! They've been to Malaysia five times. Driven all across Europe and into Russia. China, Singapore, you name it. They've been in my rucksack all of this time. In fact I'm on my second rucksack! If flies take on voodoo quality by travelling then these ones have it.

I'll post some photos shortly.

Cheers, Paul

Ready to mail out/hand deliver. The smallest longest fly swap in history! However every set comes in a presentation box and with lumi-line!

Cheers, Paul
