    Default Super Bowl Swap

    Super Bowl Swap

    THIS SWAP IS FULL

    This one?s in honor of this year?s Super Bowl Teams, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Seattle Seahawks.

    Any style and size of fly goes as long as it includes a team color of either/both the Pittsburgh Steelers or the Seattle Seahawks. The official team colors are black and gold for the Steelers. For the Seahawks they?re a slate blue, navy, and bright green. Both teams also have white jerseys. Choose any or all of these colors for your flies. It?s ok to use other colors in addition to these as long as your flies have one of the above colors included. It?s ok to tie something that someone else is tying. Limit will be 12 tiers, including me. Create 12 of the same fly and send them in with toe tags, crush-proof container, self-addressed envelope with return postage. YOU MUST BE ON TIME with your flies. If you send them in after the deadline, they?ll be returned to you unopened and the rest of us will be bummed.

    And NO FAIR tying them in Patriot green, Denver orange, or even Buffalo red!

    Bonus points to anyone who actually ties their flies while watching the game.

    To sign up, it?s first come, first served. All levels of tying experience welcome.

    Sign up by: February 11th

    Flies due to me by: March 31st

    I'm in. I have no idea what to tie yet, but I'm in.

    I'm going to make some type of a stimulator variation. Probably blue and green, in honor of Mike Holmgren. yes, I still admire the guy, even though he left Green Bay.

    I would like to join the swap. I'll tie a black gurgle-pop popper with gold legs. As long as "DA Bills" are not in it, might as well go for the Steelers. Actually I have some relatives living in Pittsburg.
