My name is Niklas Dahlin I am from Sweden, brewed in 1971. two kids, fiance, stationwagon, to less fishing etc you know the drill.. :roll:

I will let my first post be my recently tied North country spiders from Mr T.E Pritt´s book..

Enjoy.../Nik

Niklas,

Nicely dressed flies you have there. I recognize you and your flies from the UK Fly Dressing site. I especially like the Dark Watchet. Welcome, mate.

NIK,
GREAT JOB ON THESE FLIES! I AM GLAD TO SEE THE "DARK SPANISH NEEDLE" AT THE TOP OF YOUR LIST. IT'S BEEN A GREAT PATTERN FOR ME THROUGH THE YEARS.
WE ALL LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING MORE OF YOUR CRAFT IN THE FUTURE!
WELCOME TO THE BEST FORUM ON THE PLANET FROM THE GREATEST GROUP OF TIERS EVER ASSEMBLED. YOU DID WELL!

Niklas,

A big welcome to the coolest wingless wet sight to have come along. Your flies are spot on. These are great to see. Please post as often as possible. Especially the old tried and true spiders. These are fantastic.
