XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXSwap is FullXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Ok I have debated this with myself for a few days since I am in a lot of swaps already and decided to start this fun swap.

It will be for any type Terrestrial Fly.

Lets try to get 12 tiers including myself. Tie 1 fly for each tier for a total of 11 flies unless you want one sent back to you then tie 12.

Send your flies in a box strong enough and big enough to hold the flies you will be getting back. Also send a self addressed envelope with enough postage to send it back to you with your box enclosed in it. Please do not use metered postage strips.

Signup deadline will be Aug 15, with all flies due to me on or before Sep 15.

I hope we can all have fun with this swap.

I will be tying my version of the Hy Vis Foam Beetle.

HOOK: #12 Mustad 94840

Bassman,

I’d like to join in. Would a wooly worm be okay for this swap? If you’d rather, I could do a catalpa worm.

Thanks,
Terry

Only 4 more tiers and we have a complete swap. I know this is going to be a fun swap. John

Bassman,

Is it okay if my son Matthew joins in on this swap? He’s a beginner but then I’m not much more along myself.

He could do the wooly worm and I’ll do the catalpa.

Thanks,
Terry
