I am in with a soft hackle pheasant tail nymph.

I’m in with a peacock herl, bead and olive and you can see my address on the right…

I tied an olive/green icedub flymph with a green Partridge soft hackle. It’s a good fly for sunshiny days.

Paddy80701 · February 25, 2015, 3:49pm

I’m in, pattern TBA…Paddy

ibrb · February 26, 2015, 12:56am

sjo · February 27, 2015, 10:03am

What’s next?

Sjo

Captain_Mortis · February 27, 2015, 10:50am

Already sjo, who lit a fire under you? I just figured out what I’m going to tie. I’m doing a soft hackle emerge.

Luke_McLeod · February 27, 2015, 10:27pm

Does hen saddle qualify as “soft”, or are we looking for partridge, starling etc?

billhouk · February 28, 2015, 3:12am

I hope Geoff accepts hen or I need to switch my pattern!

sjo · February 28, 2015, 11:26am

I burned my feet in a sauna, so I’m sitting home wondering how you know that someone has lit a fire under me?!

Captain_Mortis · February 28, 2015, 9:13pm

I consider hen saddles soft hackle.

Rick_Z · February 28, 2015, 10:45pm

Flies went In the mail today.

Rick

Luke_McLeod · March 1, 2015, 2:00am

Cool! I’ll start tying just as soon as Old Man Winter let’s me out of my plow truck! Looks like the next week is going to be busy around this town. Luke.

gmac209 · March 1, 2015, 8:33pm

Gmac was contacted by Peter, wanting to join the swap. Peter has been assigned September. Unfortunately, I could not quite make out his board name. Peter, welcome and please join in with your pattern.
Welcome!

Hey Bill and Geoff, I have chosen a classic, Sylvester Nemes Partridge and orange. Half the flies are tied and I expect they will be in the mail on Monday or Tuesday. Welcome Peter !!! Paddy
