Right guys Lets get this competition up and running. A wee bit late for January, so this will be a february competition, so this will give you all plenty of time to come up with your deadly patterns. Usual rules. Each entrant can enter 1 pattern of there choice. Can be an existing or a new pattern. A photo along with a full dressing of the fly is to be posted in the thread. The competition will run until the end of the month, when a poll will be opened for 2 weeks to decide the winner. The winner will receive a fabulous fly tying prize donated by The Helmsdale Tackle Company. Happy tying and good luck.
