Ok, who is up for a fast swap? I am starting a Simple midge swap. These flies should not take you long to whip up.
The plan is to have 10 tiers including myself. Please tie 1 fly per tier for a total of 10 and one of your own will be sent back to you.
Send your flies in a crush proof container big enough to hold the flies you will be getting back. Please include toe tag with the name of the fly, and your screen name. Also send a self addressed envelope with enough postage to have it sent back to you with your box enclosed in it. No metered postage strips please. I will email my mailing address once spots are filled.
Sign up deadline is August 26th, with the flies due back to me on or before September 15th.

Hook : #18
Head : Copper Bead
Thread : Black 6/0

I’m not sure if this midge has a name. I am sure it does somewhere out there. Anyway, my son calls it “The Fuzzy Midge”. Maybe after it gets to you folks, it can be given another name as well.
CK thanks for letting me into your swap. I really enjoy fly swapping and have flies from about all over the world. Well not really but I’m getting there.
