We are trying to put together a box of flies for the PCT fundraiser on July 10th. The idea is to tie 3 of your favourite Yuba fly and send them in to me. I will put them in a box and get them to Steve for the auction. The best looking flies in the collection will win a bottle of wine (judged by me). I know it is short notice but it is only a few flies and it is to support PCT. I will kick it off and tie 3 patterns ( At least we will have 9 flies that way!!)
If you are interested add the fly that you will tie in a reply to this post as well as a PM to me. From there I will get back to you with my address and we can go from there.
Cheers,
Alastair.

I am glad you are not in the contest Alastair!! Three flies sound easy enough I will tie up some crazy version of the S and M that usually works and maybe throw in something else. How about some beads? They seem to work every so often??? I have a few orange marbles that resemble salmon eggs...
Sounds good Otter..... them morbles can be the ticket...... I think Oneweight has been known to fish them all year round!!
Also we know there are a bunch of you that fish the Yuba all the time ...yes you... we know most of you tie so step up and start tying!!

I am not as much a Yuba guy as some of you but I have to tie a set so count me in. I will do some Skwalas and march browns I guess. The third fly I will surprise you with...

Hey don't know if I confused every one with my origional post but if you would like you need only tie one pattern, just 3 of them!! but hey if youre up for 3 patterns i.e. 9 flies I am sure PCT will appreciate it.
I know there are a few more tiers out there...... come on...... someones got to jump on some caddis poopahs or the like??? A couple more patterns and we'll have a really nice box of flies!! CJ wrote:
