Novices
Richard L has kindly volunteered to work with anyone starting out fly tying – with an aim to have a completed fly by the end of the evening.
Surplus Tools and Materials
If anyone has any surplus tools or materials that they would like to donate to get new tyers started, then please bring them along. (Richard B – any spare squirrel tails?)
Projector
Don’t cross your fingers, but we may be able to ‘cast’ images of flies being demonstrated from our phones to the TV – if both the internet and TV are working….
