Brian Wise Posted July 20, 2012 Posted July 20, 2012 I actually changed what I'm tying to the below, should be able to throw it on a 5 or 6wt which was my goal as a lot of guys aren't throwing 8's.

Looks real nice RFD. I'm working up a material order as I write this, should hopefully be able to start working on them next week..are we tying one fly for each participant, or two? <{{{><
Lancer09 Posted July 23, 2012 Posted July 23, 2012 I figured one for each participant. So I would tie, One for every member in the swap including yourself. That way Whe I mail them out everyone gets the same package, and you will just get one of your own Flies. Jason R. I think that would probably be ok. The due date isn't til Aug 15th, so you have plenty of time, just under a month. Remember, whenever your flies are done PM me and i'll send you my address. Mail your flies in a crush proof container and a few dollars for postage OR a folded up self addressed and stamped envelope. BTW, RFD, That fly is awesome!
rfd515 Posted July 24, 2012 Posted July 24, 2012 Looks real nice RFD. BTW, RFD, That fly is awesome! Thanks! I have eight done. Technically nine, but I apparently had too many beers and forgot the flashabou on one so I threw that one in my box.
Lancer09 Posted July 26, 2012 Posted July 26, 2012 I have a few done, need to get a few more things to finish them up after pay day. Pm me when your flies are done.
Brian Wise Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 I am going to jump on mine this weekend. I am thinking Double Deceiver.....RFD is helping out the guys that aren't throwing big gear--I am going the other way. :-) My Youtube Channel
Jason R. Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 K I'm in. Not sure which fly ill tie but I think it will be on a size 2 streamer hook and involve a craft fur head. http://flyinthesouth.com/
Lancer09 Posted July 27, 2012 Posted July 27, 2012 Jason R. There is a lot to tie with those qualities. Look at Nick Granatos stuff, the chubby muffin sculpin comes to mind as well as the samsquatch. Just a couple of patterns. Since we are past the Sign up date really, lets get these knocked out boys and go catch some big browns. Brian, Thanks, great now I need to go get a new 8 wt. to throw that fly. Lord knows my, pretty much medium 8 wt. BP sticks aren't going to throw it real well. Thanks, Jeez

I am going to do a fly that I haven't done a video on......The Hog Snare. That's right, TRIPLE articulated and catches rainbows that break your reel. My Youtube Channel
