Best Great Lakes Trib Swap

[FIREMAN]

THIS SWAP IS CLOSED

O.k.

Here is a swap for the Great Lakes Tribs folks. I want to keep this on the small side with a total of 6 tyers which includes myself.

So 6 tyers in the group for a total of 12 flies (2 flies per person)

2 different patterns.

The reason for the two different patterns is to allow one to be an egg pattern. How can you fish the tribs without some egg patterns right?

The deadline to sign up will be a week from today Nov. 11th or sooner if we get filled up. So the first 5 people to sign up.

The deadline to submit and have your flies to me will be Dec. 15th. So that should give everyone a little over a month to complete and submit your patterns.

As soon as we get the tyers I will put everyone on an email list and go from there.

So how about some of your successful flies for this years steelhead season? I will pick patterns last to give you all first shot. I already have an idea for mine though.

Thanks,
Seege

[FIREMAN]

Jack and SDH you are in. Jack you can tye two different colors if you like. Ive actually seen those things in the fly tying section at Gander Mountain and was going to pick some up. I was just gonna go plain but your pattern would be more attractive to me (shouldnt it be the fish?)

Thanks for signing up,
Seege
