Hi BG and swappers....I guess I'm the last set.....I have them tied and will get them in the mail tomorrow. By the time I got around to these, I was kinda burnt out on wetflys so I tied some drys instead.....extended body parachutes. Looking forward to seeing everyone's flies!.....Jason
Hello fellow swappers!
All sets of flies are in, sorted, and shipped.
you all should be receiving your sets shortly.
Great flies from a great bunch of people.
here is the recipie for my addition; Propers perfect dun. This was developed by Datus Proper and I found it in his book "What the Trout Said".
Hook: mustad signature R52S size 12
tail: moose mane
abdomen: red fox fur with brown 3/0 thread rib
thorax: amber beaver
hackle: cree
wings: synthetic mayfly wings
thread: UTC burnt orange
Proper used long hackle tips for the wings.
I find the synthetic wings look and perform quite well.
Best,
