Phantastic Pheasant Swap

[WWKimba]

---THIS SWAP IS CLOSED ---

I've participated in a couple of swaps and would like to host my first. Though fairly new to the forum section I have contributed a couple items on the FAOL "Tying Tips". I've enjoyed tying flies for the past 30+ years and have shared more flies with Cub Scouts than with the fish! Now to the swap.

This is designed to give tiers a few new options on how to utilize the wonderful and varied body/neck/wing feathers of the male Ringneck Pheasant. With all due respect to Mr. Sawyer, no pheasant tails please. There is a total 9 openings for this swap and registration will close by COB May 12th. Please do not register for this swap if you cannot get your flies to me by June 1st. Please include the name of your fly when registering and toe tags when mailing your flies. I will send my mailing address to you when you are confirmed for the swap.

Have fun!

FYI: Pheasant body/neck/wing must be one of the main materials, after that the world is your oyster (you could even include pt in the fly - ie. if you have a favorite hopper pattern with a pheasant body feather for the wing cover you can include pt legs). Hope this helps - I do not dislike pt - I just wanted fliers to enjoy the rest of this wonderful bird. Thanks for all your questions/comments!
