    Kaboom

    I posted your flies arrival and it did not post for some reason. Great job Brad, and thanks for the extras. Kaboom not only sent one beautiful pattern ,but the he went above and beyond with a second fly. Both of these flies are first rate, and I know will be welcome additions to our flyboxes!! Brad also thank you for the extras, they will be put to good use! By the way, what size are the furled leaders, the smaller one would be great for my little 3 wt! I have to say that the qauilty of these flies are the best I have ever seen, this is the best swap i have been involved in. Keep the great flies coming!!!

    They were designed for 4-6 wt rods, but try it on the 3 wt. You will know very soon if it is too heavy...it will not turn over, but pile up at the end of the cast. If it does not work, let me know and I will send you one that will.

    Toby,

    The GSS Rabbit Strip River Minnows (with rabbit collar) hit the mail this afternoon. I had them tied weeks ago but somehow they ended up in the bottom of the traveling tying kit.

    I hope everyone enjoys fishing them. It was fun doing a minor variation on one of my go to patterns.

    Definitely need to fish more...

    Recieved two great sets of flies today! REE and Mike Brown's flies both arrived and are simply beautiful. Only a few days left, and still a few sets remain. I am hoping all the flies are in route by the week, so I can get these flies back out. This set of flies will amaze ya, the best swap I have been a part of!
