Laissez Les Bon Temps Roule!! --FULL

Let The Good Times Roll!!

This is a Mardi Gras swap for freshwater and warmwater flies. Flies need to have purple, green and/or gold in there somewhere. It can be majority of the fly or just a splash of gold flash or wire. It just can not be made out of lint. Inspiration can be from an old pattern or new: http://www.mardigrasday.com/mardigras/schedule.php

There will be spots for 12 tiers since Mardi Gras always starts twelve days after Christmas, but we all know the planning and celebrations are going on now. Flies are due to me middle of February. I'm targeting for no later than 15 Feb, so I can get them in the mail, and you can have them on Mardi Gras (this year it's the 20th).

Normal rules apply: self addressed stamped envelope, good box, toe tags with at least your name and fly.

Ok DianeID your last Mardi Gras Swap was fantastic so if you will have me I will get in with One of my Simple Mini Wooly Buggers. If that is ok. Thanks John

[DianeID]

Thanks for joining, John. Actually, I'm not sure which Diane/Dianne did the Mardi Gras swap last year, but it wasn't me. Hopefully, this will be just as fun though.

Sorry about that Diane, sometimes I do get you too mixed up. But I still think you run some great swaps. It is always a pleasure to be in the fly swaps with you. John
