Sharp & Gentles Memorial Clyde Style Flytying Shield.

Thursday – Sharp & Gentles Flytying Club

I had a thoroughly enjoyable evening at the club, made all the more special as I was both delighted and honoured to be awarded this year’s Sharp & Gentles Memorial Clyde Style Flytying Shield.

This recognition truly means a great deal to me. The opportunity to learn, refine my skills, and continue developing within the tradition of Clydestyle fly tying is something I value immensely. To be considered alongside and now follow in the footsteps of many highly respected  Clyde Style accomplished tyers, many of whom are previous recipients of this award, is both humbling and inspiring.

My sincere thanks to the club and all involved in keeping traditional Clyde Style flies relevant in the modern world.
