Delighted to announce that I’ve been invited along as a guest tyer at the Semperfli show in Beith on Saturday 17th October!

I’ll be there all day demonstrating some of the flies shown here on my page, and maybe some new ones that have proven effective between now and then, and will be happy to answer any questions you may have about these and other patterns.

Hope to see some of you there 👍🏻
