Count me in on this one too. I have a tadpole pattern I’m working on. Have to wait for the ice to melt on my favorite beaver ponds before I know it works though. But you left me plenty of time to adapt it. Thats as long as tadpoles qualify.

If flyfishing were a sin, I’de be the devil’s right hand man.

I’m there dudes.

I’ll either do Eric Leiser’s spun-hair hopper or Gary Borger’s hopper, I’m not sure just yet.

Thanks for the opportunity to swap!

God bless and tight lines,

EF
