This is shaping up to be a certainly great swap. Love that McPhail JC beetle La Jolla, can't wait to see it. From the canyon hopper, foam beetles to the ants and a British "daddy long leg"... this is gonna be a good one!

I'm going to make a couple prototypes right now and decide ... maybe I'll put some pictures up.

Yes, Sir! This one is fun already! Lots of great patterns already spoken for, and still a few "undecideds", so it can only get better! I've got better than half of mine tied already...

I'm in on that, too! It's gotta take a bit of time and effort to administer and manage one of these swaps. It's the least we should do, as Mark's not even listed as a tier in this one!

A good idea I'll include some extras as Mark does an amazing job.

No, they are hard body acrylic ants.

I tied up 14 last night for the swap. These are the very ants that I will mail out. Please PM me the address they go to.

Due to the warm weather, it seems terrestrials are on the move early this year. Already caught a few fish on beetles and black crickets this year, and saw a few of the 'living' versions of my fly last weekend near some sunny granite boulders on a south facing slope.

Peregrines, I tied up an extra for you, let me know if you want it or if it is superfluous (or you can always just send it back to me).
TB
