I’m tying up some bead head soft hackle pheasant tails already. I can easily add another ten or so for this swap.

I’d like in also. I’ll be tying my namesake, an original pattern that I’ve had great success with on Oregon rivers, that I call 2 bead pupa. Thanks for hosting Pieter ! Russ B.

We are at ten tyers and I will not start another swap until February 1st. I figure I can do one a month until I cease to exist. Thanks for joining up.

I got them in the mail last night . Thanks Pieter for hosting and I’m looking forward to seeing everyone’s creations. Russ Burk

I will be tying a Squirrelly Cuss. And I sure am glad that I have a bit of time to complete them. Learning new techniques can be troublsome and require changes to the receipe.

Hook: 3x long curved nymph, #14
Bead: 3/32" brass
Thread: Uni 8/0, black
Tail: fox squirrel guard hairs
Ribbing: fine or “small” copper wire
Body: red floss
Collar: fox squirrel guard hairs
Legs: small black rubber strands
