Hi Guys;
I'm a newbie at fly fishing, but I like tying also. I don't know how swaps work. I have a real go to fly(when things get slow) BUT only one. Would you kinda give me a how to?

Many of your questions may be answered in this thread:

You're in, shorthaul.

MSD53X --- for sure read that thread that FishnDave recommended.
Then tie up 10 each of 2 flies (if you REALLY only have one, then tie it in 2 sizes).
Mail the 20 flies to me in a non-crushable box so they get here by August 15, with return postage included (cash is fine).
Then a week later you'll recieve your box back with 2 flies from everyone in it!

Thanks Dave;

Can I get in? I'll pick a pattern shortly. I'd like to do a Lee Press-On Fly, but I need to make sure I have enough fingernails of the same size. If not, I have lots of other off-beat patterns, like the Hot-Glue Minnow, etc.....
Thanks,

Thanks for the invite Danbob. But not this swap, I have alot on the plate right now. (hardly been able to fish!)
You bet gigmaster. What 2 flies should I put you down for?

Got mine tied and tagged. Soon as all the yayhoos around here quit drinking white liquor and shooting their guns off their back porches I'll mail them.
