"Old Fly" Swap

[zimrx17]

Being the avid historian I have watched with interest at the section run by the Lady Fisher on the classic flies. I have never hosted a swap, but think this would be a great one. So the rules are that it has to be a classic fly with a history, or one from the archives on this site. I will start with 10 (including me) and go up to 15 if there is enough interest. I am still searching the archives for my fly. Let me know.

Sorry, lets say the deadline is a week from today, 1/20/06, and the deadline for flies is 2/10/06, that will give a little longer in case any of the flies are super hard and need extra time, also to get materials, wings, etc...

Drew;
Put me in for a Madson's Barber Pole. A traditional AuSable River fly.
I have to tie a bunch for the Fish-In. I had entered it in another swap but changed out for another wet fly.
P.S. I'd like to get some swaps going for the AuSable Fish-In.

------------------
I feel more like I do now than I did when I got here!

I've never done a swap before, but this category interests me. An Adirondac, Ben Bent, Grizzly King, etc. Blind eye with leader, of course.
I'll tie the Fin Fly, it's a nice old wet fly.
