Okay, I'm just finishing up the flies for the A to Z swap and started thinking about that great wet fly swap HCMiller ran last year. I've been waiting for another and decided to host one myself.
This is a Two-Fer swap, each tier will tie one wingless wet fly (spider, flymph, soft hackle nymph) and one winged wet fly (wings can be quill slips, folded slips, rolled or bunched fibers) of your choice for a total of 24 flies (12 of each). Limit is 12 tiers including me.
Sign up is open and will remain open until April 15th or the swap fills. Flies are not due until May 15th. That's right, May 15th. We've got some international tiers that might want in on this.
Send your flies in a crushproof container, toe tagged with the name of the fly, your name and your screen name, as a minimum. If it's a fly you invented, better name it quick. Also include a self addressed stamped (not metered) envelope for the return trip or enough US funds to cover the cost of an envelope and postage. (If getting US funds is a problem PM me.)
Any takers out there
Flies will ship on the 15th. All flies are in, divided up, photo'd and repackaged. Just waiting for the Post Office to open.
