Fly tying materials for sea fishing

[Snatcher]

Have just made up a number of sandeel imatations which appear to be working quite well. I have been putting "goo goo" eyes on them and then fixing with epoxy resin. Only problem I have ran out of the eyes and do not know who the supplier is to purchase some more. They were 7mm in diameter. Any suggestions would be most appreciated. Thank you in anticipation chaps and chapesses!

When you say 'goo-goo' eyes do you mean the ones that move ? If so, check out the Wapsi eyes at http://www.sportfish.co.uk. Order by phone tomorrow they'll deliver by saturday.

Sorted,happened to be in our local hardware store and was walking past their haberdashery dept when I noticed a massive jarfull of the said eyes at 4p each. So asked for 100 of them. The shop assistant said that I did not look the type who made teddy bears. I nearly PI--ED myself laughing.

Cheers chaps x

What? A hot what Col? x I am an epoxy man - the technique is to stick your newly tied baby into a 6" match and twirl it for about 5 mins x

Will have a couple of beers for you in the Ship Sat night,just got a text off Bill Hutchinson,he is hoping to call in for a couple - luxury. Friday night as darkness approaches plan to babtise my new babies at some likely looking bass spot. It will be with a bubble float and not a fly rod though,they are 6" long and a bit big to handle on my normal fly gear. Will let you know what happens. Ian is going to use some of the said babies on his boat and see how good they are.

See you anon maties
