Will kik off at about 18:45, try to be there for about 18:30.  Anyone who cannot make that time, please give me a buzz at the shop on 01330 824 319 and I will give you a note of my mobile number so you can call me to let you in!

I will do a few streamers that have scored well for me in the past few seasons and will talk a bit about fishing them.  If I can fisn a less terminally ill laptop before then I may have a PP presentation somwhere. 

You can being some kit if you want but some of the patterns are quite lengthy ties.

Anyone who has any streamer patterns that they would like to share is welcome to tie too, just bring some gear as I will be taking the bare minimum.  Will have plenty of rabbit, deer hair, fritz, lead, sculpin wool & tungsten, if your pattern involves anything a bit more refined then you will need to bring it along!!

Cheers

Ben

Hi Matt,

Will be an 18:45 start but try to be there for about 18:30, gives me time to get everyone upstairs and get locked up.

Cheers

Another great evening, thanks Ben,

Always good to put faces to names,

Got a good few ideas & materials for streamer patterns but was busy last night tying new nymphs on Dihatsu hooks to replace the ones tied on Knapeks :mad

Looking forward to some pic's of streamers soon.

Thanks to Ben for another great evening out. It gave me a lot to think about and some new patterns to try.
Hmmm now I need a fast sinking shooting head, running line, another spool for the reel - will it ever end :z12

Good to meet some new folks and put faces to names to the forum.

Here's to the next time
