czech nymph swap again...

**SWAP IS FULL***

as threatened, I'm gonna rerun this swap with a more generous timeframe. anyways, similar to last time, six tyers plus myself w/ two flies a piece = 14 flies to me by the deadline which will be april fools day. the submissions for the quick and dirty swap were superb and I expect similar results this time around. additional participants will be welcome should the interest be there.

thanks.

O.K. - I'm thinkin' of a tri-corlor or rainbow one. Probably the tri-color. How would that be?

I have a question --- even though you can't see me raising my hand! Do we have to tie these on the "official" CZ - Czech nymph hooks? Cause I don't have any of those.

------------------
Dennis ~BadBug~

feel free to use any hook you'd like.
I'd steer clear of mustad dry fly hooks of the miniscule variety.

I've been using some big (#10-#12) curved dry fly hooks roy christie sent me a while back. I weight the shank w/ lead tape from champagne bottles.

anyways the results are, well, stunning.

But what I want to know is ------ are they "stunning" before or after the bottles are empty?
