Creation Trout Swap II
THIS SWAP IS FULL
11 people total
The first one went very well, so im gonna try it again. This swap goes out to ANYONE who wants a part of it. The instructions are fairly simple. All you need to tie is a trout fly that you have created. It can be any style of trout fly just as long as its use is, well, for trout. The maximum ammout of tiers is 12, so sign up soon. The deadline for SIGNING UP is May 14th. The deadline for the flies TO BE DUE is June 6th. That gives over a month to tie. If you guys feel there are any problems with these numbers, let me know. Also, toe tags are not neccesary if you post the recipe, but they do make it easier for the tyer.
My address is 45 Mary's lane, Scituate MA, 02066.

I tie flies to give the fish something to laugh about.

I will tie a wet hackle "Maxfield". Good friend gave me her dad's (Maxfield) old fishing stuff including some flies and his reel. I designed this fly in memory of a flyfisher long gone and who fished all over the world.

Most dragon nymph patterns take to long to tye but the nymphs are everywhere. I have a simple pattern that is easy to put together. I call it the easy dragon. I'll play.

Who has time for stress when there are fish to catch.

sounds good, lets get some more in on this
-
I'm new at this, how many flies will I have to tie?
-
you need to tie 11 flies, not too bad eh? its a great way to pick up some good flies, and in this case, some good ideas.
-
What kind of container should I ship them in? And how should I ship them?
-
lots of folks use those small metal candy containers (Altoids candies) and slip that into an envelope.
I always include TO and FROM stickers for the envelope and the box. Some of my boxes have seen several swaps.
Also, it is traditional to include an extra flie or two for the swapmaster.
