A fellow TFF member IM'd me that a small envelope was on it's way ... and after a couple of days trying to handle the tease ... it arrived.
Inside was a delightful surprise ... these two packets of Bernard Sealey & Co. hooks ... "King of Tyons" eyed hooks in sizes 12 and 14. I had a few 'Tudor Spade' and 'Rapid Strike' by the same company, but 'King of Tyons' were new to me and much appreciated.
Many thanks, Sir (you know who you are) !!!

Re: Yet another example of TFF generosity !!!
I was just discussing this with a fellow member the other day, there's surely no other forum like it anywhere, and as he said 'long may it continue'. Just the other day Fredline sent me 'without charge' a line guard for a reel I wanted. Would never take advantage of it and certainly don't expect it, but really do appreciate it.

Nicely done mystery man!
Spot on POD. Long may it continue.

I walked across an empty land
I knew the pathway like the back of my hand
I felt the earth beneath my feet
Sat by the river and it made me complete.

Splendid thoughtfulness. Might TYONS be Ty-ons, as in tie-ons?? Maybe tie-ons was a name for eyed hooks?
