    Thanks for sharing. Man, I just wish I could make these kind of contributions to the forum.

    Glad to help man! This pattern is a workhorse for me on the Vaal. Holographic chartreuse will work magic too. That's the key...experiment!

    Nice one!!!!

    You can also get some really cool coloured shellbacks from a box quality streets!

    Mike the fizzer packet material looks translucent when you tie it down. I never assumed it was and it adds very much to the pattern! Is it green on the inner side too?

    Cheers

    Yes it's green all the way through...one side is a little more shiny than the other side though. But totally translucent, which is great.

    The quality street sweet idea is a good one! Also, the wrapping from Amstel 6-packs...great green colours.

    Are you family of Brett Kieser perhaps? My nephew is in CT, and one of his mates is Brett Kieser.

    Nah no relation that I know of Michael. (I replied on the other thread too).

    I am not familiar with any of my relations further away than 1st cousins though so he may be a second cousin I guess.

    Aaah okay cool. Didn't see the other thread reply. Just I thought it may be, as Kieser is not a common surname (I think anyway!)

    Not too common as far as I know (And most people sigh a sign of relief at that). I have never bumped into someone with the same surname that was not a direct relative of mine.

    Anyhoo, I am off to bed - got a big day of trials tomorrow!

    Hope everyone has a good weekend!
