MuskyFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted February 17 I have not hosted a swap in awhile and this will get me started again. Swap is size 2 or larger Murdich Minnows. Tie 7 and mail them to me with toe tags on each and return postage. Open to first seven that respond. If you have any questions, let me know. SM - Tom - white and gold 1. Niveker - Silver and white 2.Chasing tails - purple 3. Vicrider - tba 4. TroutTramp - tba - received 5. Darrell - Black 6. Byron Anderson - Chartreuse and white - received 7. Cphubert - tba It is a go. Tie 7 and get them to me and you will get 7 mailed back. I cut it off, so we could plan on our tying Seven flies should get you deep into the bass season. I will post a picture of mine when they are finished and then a picture of the complete set. Due date is April 1, which means you will get them in time for bass season. Send to: Tom Keith 4012 Washburn Ave S Minneapolis, MN 55410 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chasing_Tails 0 Report post Posted February 17 I'm in. I'll go with a classic dark water tarpon color (but works for all species), The Purple Demon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MuskyFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted February 17 Excellent I have a friend who maintains that the three best colors for bass are purple, purple, and purple Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted February 19 I'm not sure about Murdich Minnow style but I'll look it up and tie something similar. I may have to go out in the shed and get some of my bass hooks for this but hopefully the swap goes better than the Chronomid swap and I'll have these for my bass box.

MuskyFlyGuy 0 Report post Posted February 27 I will close the openings next week. Right now it is six flies apiece. I go through 3-4 flies a summer and then I retie them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
