would anyone be interested in doing something/ALL IN!

All about flies Fly Swaps
1

Would anyone be interested in doing something different. 12 tiers, 6 flies each. When all of the flies get to me, i will number them 1-12, and i will put the numbers in a hat, and take them out and i would send them back to you. I think this would be really fun, and that everyone would really enjoy this. If i get 3 people to say that they would be interested, i will do it, otherwise, i will hold off. And, if you feel like 6 flies isn’t enough, just tell me. But i think that how summer is starting up, and we are all doing more fishing than tying (except for me) that 12 might be a little bit much.

P.S. They must all be trout flies

Interested, Count me in will we tye 6 of the same pattern or 1 each of 6 different patterns.

16 Royal Wolff 6 ea for swap 6 ea for swap master went in mail today.

probobally just 6 flies of one type, so that instead of getting one flie of each from a swap you can have 6 flies that if you lose one, you can tie on another.

Flies for trout? If so, count me in. I kind of like this grab bag idea of yours!

5

one more person and this will be an officiol swap, comeon, this could be a great opportunity to get some good patterns… Mabie, you could throw in the materials to tie one of that kind of fly, so we can see if we know how to do it, that might be fun too…

JZ…aw heck count me in. I have a wee bit of time to tie a few flies and since I have seen your handywork firsthand…it should be interesting. Dont expect any miracles from me…but I will see what flies I need a lot and tie up a bunch of. As for materials…LOL…getting kinda skimpy of of some of my fave materials but I might be able to throw in a minimal amount for giggles hehehehe.

I think I will try my hand at a #14 wet fly for your swap if that is agreeable to you.

16

ok, sounds good.

17

JZ: If there is an opening I would like it.

18

JZ: If there are any spots open please sign me up. I am open to suggestions as to what you might like tied.

Good luck,

JZ,

Flies finished and hope to get them in the mail tomorrow. Barring that it’ll have to be after the holiday closing of the post office. The extra ones are for you in the separate marked package. Included in another package, for whomever receives them, are enough ingredients for tying several more of the same fly. For the receipe and how-to photos go to the Fly Archives - 2005 -1st. Quarter-and click on- “Al’s 4 Bead Head Nymph.” Think this was a neat idea for a swap.
