        Some halibut from last summer when I was at sea. So tasty!

            Great pics all, really enjoying them. 😘

            My barbelling sessions have resulted in more chub, but I'm getting lots of advice from the members on the club stretch of river, so hopefully things will change soon 😠

              In about a week I go Bonefishing for a week in Andros, Bahamas.

              4 weeks ago I set myself the goal of tying at least 2 flies per day between than and when I left.  I'm just about on target:

                    It was Ben last time.  He can't come this time as he has just started a new business.  I was let down at the last moment by another friend, so I was going to cancel, but Paula gave me shit and basically told me that I needed to go and get a break, because the next few months could be just as shitty for me as it will be for her.  I would have liked P to come, but a) she's not meant to travel, b) If she could, she'd be uninsurable, c) there is nothing (and I mean nothing) to do where I go, except fish.  So I have a good friend flying down from Kentucky for 3 of the 6 days I am there…..

                        I'll be with my Bahamian friend Phillip.  I need a guy with a boat to get me out to the "Flats"….

                        I have high hopes for this one - may tie up a few more of them.....

                            It's the eyes and tails on them that look amazing. Okay and their 'hair' too. I'm surprised you have the patience for such delicate work

                                    Those flies look delicious, the pics of them aren't too shabby either Giles 😃

                                    I'm out next week, but its taking me 15 minutes to tie a simple hair rig, as the tip of my thumb went missing last week (damned sharpmaker 😠 ;D)

                                      I'm driving myself mad trying to catch a Barbel; only 5 days to go now this season
                                      I was put onto a swim and caught this twice in 20 minutes  😠

                                          Me too Giles; I'm on holiday in Bournemouth for a week so I'm going to try to get a day down there.
                                          I think I'll be rolling meat.

                                          If you haven't seen these they're quite good/amusing.

                                            Let me know, perhaps we can go together. I'll look at the vids later, but this is what I want to learn to do,  I've seen them doing it there and need to have a go.
