Several months ago, I tied a few of the RFS nymph and gave away most of them to some friends. i think I have only 3 or 4 left. Needless to say, there will be more in my fly box before my next fishing trip.

Re: Royal Charlie
I also was impressed by Rob Smith's video and tied a few RCs. Haven'd fished them but maybe next season.

Interesting reading on what the Sawyers used when 477 was NLA.

Re: Starling skins
Cookshill is being difficult; does anybody have another source for high quality Starling that they could share with me? Thanks. What do you mean about Cookshill being "difficult"? I just checked Steve's website and there's no notation that starling skins or wings are in short supply. Did ...
