    Default Fly give away

    Hi guys
    I have a bunch of saltwater flys that I no longer use
    They are either the last survivors of a set or an experiment Or just patterns that I've moved away from
    Some are perfect and some are just good to strip for the dumbbell eyes and hook

    Most are tied on 34007 and sl11's


    I'd like these to go to some one who is starting out in the salt possibly a junior

    If you know of anyone or are the person
    Motivate below
    I'll make a call you can have them

    But your reasoning has a fatal flaw; it overlooks the fact that to comprehend it requires that one rub a few brain cells against each other. The heat thus generated produces the light that illuminates the fact, but alas, not everybody has the resource required to fuel the process --SG

    Hi Damage! I've been tying flies for a while now and really enjoy it. I do however get stuck sometimes and I find it very helpful to look at other peoples flies to see what they did and how they did it to tie the pattern. This really helps to learn new patterns and tecniques. All and all, i would love to take them off your hands if you don't want them any more.

    Nice work Damage ... good on you as they'd say in this neck of the woods.
    Inspires me to get out my previously used fly gear and do the same.

    Christo, make sure you post some pics if you catch some fish

    Like the way you think Jono. Andre created a thread "pay it forward" some time ago. I support the project. Maybe you can too

    Ahh thanks a lot! This is awesome. Sorry for taking so long to reply. Internet sessions is limited here in the Seychelles.... And sometimes expensive. I really appreciate this and will be learning a lot from your flies! How can I collect them from you? My post address is P.O.BOX 203, Parys, Free-State, 9585. I am heading to Bird island this weekend for some fishing. Hope I'll get my Bone there and maybe a nice Trevally. Will post pics!

    Good on you mate. Loved what you did there. Sometimes I tie alot more flies for the fishing available in my area. I just tie for the love it. Recently tied a bunch of tiger fish flies for a mate of mine. he wanted to know what I wanted for them and I said only photos with the fly still in the jaw.

    I wish him luck so it will retun to me in the form of a successful tied fly(know what I meen)

    Been cleaning up again and have a few more flys avalible to give away

    They are predominately larger offshore flys
    Mostly on 34007s and some unknowns

    Again they range from perfect to fishable to experiments that can be stripped for the hook and eyes


    Again a junior or upstarter would be my intended recipient
