I have the pleasure in announcing lot 10 for the CFF fund. The lot has been kindly donated by Starlmagwonder. A little bit about the dresser; Starlmagwonder would be too modest to admit such skills and accolades himself, as such, I have the honour of doing it for him. For those who have been lucky enough to have met SMW you will know that he is an absolute legend, and a tyer of amazing ability – combining materials well, creating superb profiles, whilst being one of neatest tyers I know. Further to that, SMW was the winner of the most recent fly-tying league held by FF&FT magazine, a league where hundreds of contenders took part in, alas being beaten by a humble Cumbrian lad. This reflects SMW tying prowess and the quality of what he has kindly donated here, thanks SMW you’re a star. A little bit about the lot; True to form the lot is a beaut, a true work of art! There are 12 sea-trout patterns included in the frame, some original and some of SMW' tried and tested favourites. In addition, the winner of the auction will have their name included inside the frame, creating a true memento of the occasion. Here are a couple of shots of what the winning bidder can expect: Get bidding guys, this one is a must have! TT. Bidding ends on Sunday July the 8th at 10pm.

I would just like to say that the work has now started on this lot, I am leaving spaces open for the winning bidder to nominate 3 flies of their choice to be tied and included in the finished frame, when the auction has ended I will contact the winner via PM.
Dig deep & keep on bidding its for a very worthy cause. Good Luck to all.
