I just mailed some 'squiggly' material to Sjo today. As far as a name for my submission, put this down although I have absolutely no idea what it will look like - 'Puff Adler'.

A worm fly variation went in the mail today.

Three dollar stores down and several to go. They took all the squiggle balls and hid them as soon as I needed one ...
They were higher priced, but I've seen them at Walgreens. Check Family Dollar, too.

Good looking June flies arrived from Rick Z today.

:D
Found 'em! Going to test these out. As I'm so fond of saying I don't tie shadowbox flies and boy are these ugly. We'll see what my retention pond green sunfish think.
Ok, the squiggle (San Juan) worm, first cast, six inch green. Second cast six inch green. Third cast, a tree. Switched to the squiggle grub. It was hammered by 4, 5 and 6 inch greens. Switched over to squiggle streamer. Lots of hits but just a few hook-UPS. Actually caught the largest green on the streamer.
Squiggle nymph wins! Caught five bass this morning in about two hours. Ranged in size from 8" to 12".
I hate to do this but I need to bow out of the swap. I'm starting work soon and have things that are going to keep me away from the bench. Again i'm so sorry all.
Sorry to see you go. Work comes first I guess. Would love to welcome you back!
Back to 10 tiers for June.
