They've got supersonic ballistic heeds on 'em Thems the smallest heeds I've ever done on a salmon flee A funny little tale;I was out on the Tyne tonight trying for the salmon and lost a cascade on a snag.Looked in me box and came across a Ghillie flee tied by UG with a truly massive heed(the lads sent me a whole set a few swaps ago,as a thank you ) Second cast,1.5lb brownie on it :DLambast the massive heeds at your peril laddies!!!! ;D

I meant that they were sleek and aerodynamic as opposed to tank-busting heids. Not bad at all TT, really they're not Ade

Here'a couple of crap pics of my efforts for the swap, a couple have ropey heads so apologies in advance to the recipients; a #8 treble for Underghillie. These were meant to go on Friday but I realized I had only 11 tied and it took nearly all weekend to get a chance to tie the last one big thanks to Ade for organising the swap Braw flees suirboy, love the treble

Nothing yet Craig, do you have the reference number for "signed for" to see if it has been signed for (only then can it be traced)?
Mind you, like I said, recorded ("signed for") isn't much use unless it's actually been signed for. It isn't guarenteed delivery.
I'll keep a look out today
Cheers
Ade

Cracking 12 flies received from Scanny today. Thanks bud Brendan and Craig, I'm not too concerned about not receiving your sets just yet as they are coming over from Ireland (is that right?). Since I know they have been posted I'll just hang on until they get here. I get the feeling it'll be worth the wait Ballingall512 has pulled out , but you will be receiving a full set of different flies for sure Really appreciate you lads making every effort to get your sets to me on time, it has taken a lot of strain off me, just have to trust the postal service to do their bit now. I'll keep you all updated Cheers Ade

Ade, I'm glad they arrived safely Bonafide collectors items they will be, that's me tied enough for this year. Perfect for a good Peaty stain to the water.
