cencalfly 0 Report post Posted October 25, 2022 Hey I had a problem with the original set of flies. A replacement set will be delivered to the USPS counter morning of the 25th Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cencalfly 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2022 USPS is in possession of this batch USPS Tracking 9400109205568877508194. This one was challenging. Getting tented wings ala Glasso with hackle tips was more difficult for me than using bronze mallard. Also with a do over I got about $30 into this one. The steelhead irons are running about $1/each plus shipping. I think they're usable flies though. Thanks for everyone's patience. Swapmeister please keep the spares. Silver & Black Spey Hook: #1 Daiichi 2161 (Heavy Steelhead Iron) Thread: Grey Body: Back half - Bright Silver floss; Front half – Black Ice Dub Rib: Silver Oval Tinsel Hackle: Black Schlappen; Guinea Fowl Wing: 4 Grizzley Hackle Tips tented(ish) Collar: Gadwall or Teal or Mallard flank (I pulled from a mixed bag of feathers) The first batch was this style: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cencalfly 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2022 I keep razor blades at my bench to shred flies. Many many get scrapped clean and hooks reused. Of course the trash looks like I shaved an animal or plucked a bird. JohnW; If possible wait another few days before mailing out the flies. It ends up the first set is on its way. Should see it Wednesday. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
