Just out of interest, I heard that Gary won the A league nationals this year. Congrats Gary!
Ferdie, you'll have to mix you own blend of holo dubbing. I use daimond bright in mine. Try the guys at Frontier Flyfishing, they stock a good range of the daimond bright.

Welcome GGY........there are a few of us that have been patiently awaiting your arrival!
Welcome Gary, congratulations for the Protea team!
And thanks for the added info! I'll definately try your blends.
Gary just got lucky and his flies don't really work that well.
If you want to tie really deadly patterns, then visit Sean at Flywaters. He just landed a new batch of Hends materials. Check out the new thread and the Spectraflash. This is the stuff that the Finland team use as shellback on their Czech nymphs. Some other very useful materials as well and the prices are good.
