    Default Anyone interested in a 6-month ROYGBV Swap??

    THIS SWAP IS CLOSED

    This is designed to give tiers a chance to be COLORFUL! (though not in their language - please!). Each month the fly will have as the main color a new color in the rainbow. The swap will run for six months with a different color theme each month. The colors and due dates follow:
    Red - Due by Febuary 22, 2011
    Orange - Due by March 22, 2011
    Yellow - Due by April 19, 2011
    Green - Due by May 24, 2011
    Blue - Due by June 21, 2011
    Violet - Due by July 26, 2011
    I will run this swap for no less than 6 and no more than 10 participants and registration will close by COB January 4th, 2011. Please do not register for this swap unless you plan on tying all 6 flies. I would like to limit flies to freshwater only. 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 and I look forward to hearing from you!

    I'll Play if you take continental swappers, we have to work out the postage, because being European I cannot buy American stamps. Maybe some extra flies or materials or Paypal?
    I'll do a red spinner.
    Grtzzz...

    Does the fly have to be of an offical pattern or can we make up our own as long as it is fishable
    Remember we all live down stream

    As I said at the end of the initial annoucement -HAVE FUN! Love to see new designs!! Plus, even WITH a formal, known design - I NEVER guarentee that my flies would be descibed as FISHABLE! I only know that there are two good days when fishing - days you catch fish and days you don't. ALL of my flies pass one of those two standards.

    sjo,

    Always appreciate any flies or tying materials - same goes for the TECHNIQUE SWAP. I'll leave that decision to your good graces - whatever is easiest for you.
