So we would each be tying 20 flies? Thats a bit much for me. I could do 10 but its your swap.
bh
I'd like to partake. I'll be tying a tube fly if that's ok.

I can handle 20, but if other people only want to do 10 that's fine to.

Tying 10 flies would work best for me. Can tie up a floating/skating candlefish pattern which I have come up with. It is kind of big and ugly but it gets the attention of fish.

Do Salt water poppers count or can I get by with a Liquid lace Minnow pattern? If you want 2 different patterns I could do 10 of each.
rockfish
07-07-2004, 09:04 PM
10 it is, any pattern you use for shallow water silvers

Ben:
Sent 10 flies to you this afternoon so you should get them in the next day or two. Thanks for doing the fly swap.

10 went out in the mail today from me Ben. I wanted to do more but; have been really busy putting up hay for the past few days.
Thanks for doing this swap though. I just wish that we could've had a better response.

I'll try to get 10 more done in the next 2 days. I hate it when you can't match 10 tyers.

Due by the 19th?:eek :eek :eek I might won't be able to make that. I can have them by the end of the month. Epoxy takes a long time without a machine. Too many other swaps and camping going on...
