All about flies Fly Swaps

How about a BWO swap? In my neck of the woods good BWO fishing will be en fuego in about 10-12 weeks. Swap is open to the first 11 swappers who reply with “I’m in”. You can tie either a dry, nymph, emerger, or soft hackle BWO. When signing up for the swap please indicate what pattern you have chosen and the size. If you are new to swaps, please check out the “rules” as they will apply. Flies will be due October 15. Please get the flies mailed on time; late flies will be sent back to you if they are late. If you have any questions, please ask.

I’m in if you take European tyers. We have to work something out as a compensation for p&p. I’ll do a size 14 wet winged BWO.

All right guys … we’ve got a good start. We’re halfway there with the number of tyers we need. We also have a good selection of flies thusfar. I’m hoping someone will jump in the swap with a fantastic emerger. Thank to all who have joined so far. I’ll wait a couple of more weeks for the swap to fill.

Sjo,

The winged wet will be fine. I am hoping 6 other tyers will join the swap and out of those siz I hope there will be a good emerger pattern. Looking forward to seeing your flies.

12

Looks like we have six participants. Thanks for joining fellas. Instead of tying 11 flies you only need to tie 5. I’ll pm my address to each of you this evening. Swap is now closed.

13

I will ty an extra set of emerger blue winged olives.
sjo

I will also throw in something extra

15

Sjo and Jamie, feel free to include an extra fly but don’t feel obligated. I will also have something other than the #18 BWO comparadun … something you can fish underneath it.

16

Fly’s a tied now comes the part I hate - Toe tagging, UGH!! I also added a size 12 parachute Green Drake for everyone.

17

I hear you Jack … toed tagging is the thing I like the least about swaps. Look forward to seeing your flies.

18

Bugman,
The swap closed last week. I contacted all the swappers with the number of flies/participants. Some of the flies are already in the mail. Sorry you missed out on this one.
