Hey Jim…

Great to see you in a swap…

Ive always heard and seen you had some GREAT swaps…

So If you have me… I’ll join…

3

sounds like a good one Jim…I’d like to get in on it. I tie a smallish (16) yellow version to match the yellow sallys around here. It has done well for me…Jason

I love stimulators. Since yellow is taken, I’ll tie a #16 royal. Is this 1 each, and tie 7? 1 each, tie 8, and get your own returned? 2 each…?

5

Great question. 8 flies total. You will recieve one of your own back.
Jim

O.K. Gang,
I have all of the flies in hand except Night Anglers.
Night Angler did you send your flies in? I would like to send out the flies next Saturday.
Please do not flame Night Angler.
Thanks all for participating in this swap. There are some sweet flies here. It is interesting to see all the different variations on the Stimulator theme, it is nice to see the fruition of the fly from very humble beginnings. Great job by ALL of the tiers!
