2013 Winter Fly Swap #2

[mcnerney]

Now that the streamer swap is wrapping up we are ready for the second swap of the 2013 winter season. I'm going to sponsor this swap and taking Buzz's suggestion, "caddis larvae, pupae, flymphs, soft hackles anything buggy" let your imagination go wild!

We'll kick this one off on Nov 15 and finish it up, with all flies due in, by Monday, December 16. Limit of 12 tyers, first come first served!

Sign up below and PM me with any questions that you may have.

It's been awhile since we tied some Caddis/Flymphs/Soft Hackles, this should be fun!

Please put me down for a soft hackle, Partridge and Olive.

 

[Liphookedau]

Larry I'm in would either a Grey or Fawn Caddis Emerger fit in ?
If not I'll pick another Pattern also could you advise whether Size 12,14 or 16 would be best for you Guys to use in The US as I can Tie any of them.

Larry I'll Tie The Grey Caddis Emerger in size 14 the other I'll send for you to try.
They both work well over here.

Also I forgot to add we just had about 1 1/2 -2 inches of Rain here last night which is really good & hopefully the Fires should now be all out as these fires are The Longest Burning Ones in History.

[von behr]

count me in for the soft hackle variety

 

[ia_trouter]

Did I say olive Larry? I meant Partridge and Orange with peacock thorax.

Didn't have any good quality olive floss on hand. I could order some for two bucks I suppose, but I'd end up ordering feathers, a Buffalo pelt and 500 hooks so I better just tie an orange fly.

VB: You're in with a Soft Hackle!

ia trouter: I made the correction.

Larry

 

[s fontinalis]

Iron Blue Dun

 

[jpbfly]

[theboz]

Count me in Larry. I just don't know what yet!

 

[ghocevar]

Still spots?...count me in for something!
