    Default Quill Body Dries #2

    ****SWAP IS CLOSED!!****


    alright, this swap was a blast last year, and went quite successfully. however, i want to get it going a bit earlier this year.

    so, your favorite quill body dry fly, classic, modern or orignal. lets say, 10 tiers including me. everybody tie 10, so i can send a complete set to each participant. i will find a way to psot pictures when the swap is over.

    sign up deadline by 11/30, flies to me by 12/31.

    the next post will be an ongoing list of who's tying and what.

    ready?...GO!

    "I've often wondered why it is that so many anglers spend so much money on,and pay so much attention to.the details on the wrong end of the fly line.If they took as much care in selecting or tying their flies as they did in the selection of the reel and rod,They might be able to gain the real extra edge that makes it possible to fool a fish that has,in fact,seen it all before" A.K.Best

    Everyone wants to excel in this sport but at the same time we let traditionalists place restrictions on our tactics, methods, and ideas. I always assumed that fly fishing was a sport that allowed imagination, creation, adaptation, investigation, dedication, education, revelation? : Fox Statler, On Spinners (Not the dainty Dry Fly kind) "Spinner'd Minner Fly"
