All about flies Fly Swaps

Time for a swap using itty bitty hooks. Size 18 or smaller. Other than that your pattern choice is up to you. Signup deadline is Sept 19. Open to the first 10 to post and ask for a spot plus the swapmeister. Your flies need to be TO ME by October 9. Include return packaging, postage (not metered), and a crushproof container. Be sure to have toetags on your flies with AT LEAST the pattern name and your username.
As always, I don’t need goodies or extra flies for hosting.

You are in bassman!

I will go ahead and post my pattern. I’m tying a size 18 with silver bead, peacock herl head and charcoal punch yarn body. Using fine black thread. Simple, easy, and productive. It is very similar to my NQE entomology fly.

Thanks ol’blue. I think I would like to tie up my version of some size 18 Trojan Midge, if that will be ok. I havn’t had a lot of experience tying real small flies since my eyes have a problem seeing the small hooks and my fingers are big. But I have been trying them out lately. John
