Reel Recovery Texas Retreat Needs Flies

Please have a look at this thread (I know it's another board but let's start an FAOL one here)

Texas Reel Recovery Tying

Any help with tying is greatly appreciated!

Sure, I'm in, but know nothing about bass flies, or bluegill. Can you give us a hint what might work?

Robin,

Great post and a great cause. For those that don't tie bluegill and bass flies, tying instructions for a number of warmwater flies can be found at http://www.youtube.com/view_play_lis...AE753AD2F1453D . Any of them will be good for that part of the world.

I'll commit to at least a dozen of something and probably more. Just let me know when and where to send them. It's the least I can do for friends back in Texas.

Here's the scoop on what's needed:
Hey gang, this is old Warren, your Texas coordinator for Reel Recovery. We sure can use those flies at our North Texas retreat scheduled for mid-November 2009. Our men will be fishing stocked water and the river with 5 and 6 weight rods. That time of the year can be unseasonably warm so we should be prepared for surface action as well sinking flies. Mostly LMB and blue gill with the occasional catfish.
Please give some thought to referring men to the retreat. Previous FF experience unnecessary. For more information visit http://www.texasreelrecovery.org
Thanks!

and some details on where to send:
Drop them off in a baggie or container marked REEL RECOVERY at Backwoods in Fort Worth, Orvis in Arlington, or mail them to; Warren Wolf, 4505 El Campo Ave., Ft. Worth, TX 76107

Thanks a bunch. I'll get some out.
