    Cool Newby trout swap

    This swap is closed thanks to those who are participating.

    Eric



    This swap is for those of you who want to swap but feel your flies don't measure up. New Tyers, those with no confidence etc.
    I will be hosting, I haven't tied more than a dozen flies in the last year and need to get tying again.

    Limited to 12 Tiers, Trout files, Dries Wets etc. don't worry about committing to a pattern if we all tied EHC it would be ok.

    General rules apply. if in doubt see here. \http://www.flyanglersonline.com/bb/s...ad.php?t=12466

    Flies due to me by March 31.

    Thanks for Reading
    Eric

    I can't belive this hasn't filled up. Tying a dozen of you favorite fly well enough to send for the swap will help improve your tying dramatically. To encourage all of you fence sitting newbies I will send Eric a patch of black bear hair to split up among the U.S. participants. Due to export restrictions tyers outside the U.S. will have to settle for a squirrel tail. Allow room for this in the box you send your flies in. Eric let me know how many of each when you send me your address.
    I can think of few acts more selfish than refusing a vaccination.

    Need to get some more hooks this evening, so that I can do some new ties, so mine should be done this weekend!
