I have a surplus of flies. I like to sit around in the evening tying flies rather than watching the tube, unless the Yankees are playing. Below is a link to a picture of 8 flies which I use on small creeks for trout as well as ponds for warmwater species. They are all tied on #10 wetfly hooks and have the barbs smashed down. Nothing fancy but they catch fish!
If you send me a SASE I will send you a set of these flies (colors may vary). Limit one to a customer
I have 10 sets available.
Tim… as a brand new fly fisherman, I don’t have many flies at this point. I’d love to give a set of yours a try. If you can PM me your information, I’ll get an envelope out to you. And thank you in advance for the flies!!!
Tim, Great looking flies. I love fishing "OPF"s. I just laid in a fresh supply of red squirrel tails. If you have any use for a couple I send them along.
Sunbob: I have one set left. They are yours if you send me a SASE (Self Addressed Stamped Envelope) as I requested in my initial post. Please let me know.
Jason: Thanks for the kind words. I enjoy sharing with others at FAOL. It is the least I can do considering what I get in return. Fly of the week, quote of the day, fly swaps, great articles and a wonderful bulletin board to name a few. I have gleaned a lot of knowledge from this site.
The fly sets have been spoken for. Should there be any questions I will not be around for several days. Going goose hunting in Central Oregon. When I return I will delete this thread and hopefully start another sometime next month.
Got back in one piece from the goose hunt. Was a great hunt except for the mosquitos. While there I realized I can’t delete this thread quite yet as I goofed up and deleted some of the players names from my Personal Message folder. While I have them written down on paper I do not have a PM address to let them know I got their SASE…
So far, I have not received any envelopes, but I am sure I will shortly. I will fill the order the same day and the flies will be in the mail the next and I will notify the recepients by either PM or on this thread.
Tim… I got sidetracked with an unexpected family visit over the weekend and haven’t gotten an envelope in the mail to you. I’ll be mailing it out tomorrow first thing. Thanks again… this is greatly appreciated!!
Last night I received 3 SASE envelopes. I was unable to match the names of the senders to those who requested by personal message, as the only info on the PM is the person’s screen name they use on FAOL. The envelopes I received were from (1) Mark in Lake of the Hills, IL; (2) Joel in Green Bay and (3) Quinn in Torrance, CA.
To you three the flies are packaged and sitting in the mailbox awaiting the postman.
