The Tiers	Pattern	Comments
1. Richard Carter	Mini Mee	A SW crustacean with good sangproof qualities.
2. Andrew White	Emu Shrimp	This fly is similar to Richards emu squid but it is a shrimp pattern.
3. Rodney Taylor	Rattle Prawn	The fly is as the name sounds.
4. Dean	Bushy's Bongo	Nice lightweight estuary fly with plenty of action.
5. PJ	King Creek Woolly Bugger
6. Trevor Court	Pink Skirt Charlie	Pink Crazy Charlie with body from game lure skirt.
7. Mark Staiger	Green Flesh Shrimp	This is a pattern which I designed based on the baited breath but without the marabou. Instead it uses some hi-vis type material which looks very fleshy when wet. Was used very successfully for bonefish at Xmas island but should work anywhere down here too. It has a green sparkly body and short tail.
8. Jay Peters	Eyes Forward Breath	Eyes Forward breath is a variation of the baited breath, but moving the eyes forward, it gives it an up and down motion through the water, This fly is a popular variation in the Onkaparinga River. Local commercial tiers frequently use it.
9. Grant	Bream Thing	A good nice small bream fly.
10. Richard Carter	Estuary Damsel
11. Richard Carter	Indestructo Clouser
11. Richard Carter	SW Mr Bean
