duckydoty 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2006 All right guys. I'm done spearmintin. I've never really tied with foam before and had many trials and errors over the last few days. Been usin the razor blade alot. My final choice to tie for this swap is a variation of our well known member Graham's Mohican Hex. Variation- doing the extended tail a little different, and using something else for the wing. I'll try and post some pics tomorrow of the final product.

carlp5351 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2006 Tom, I know one other person picked a foam hoppe. If possible I would like to tie an Charlie Boy Hopper. If you don't mind having two different hopper patterns. I'm the newbie to the site you make the call. If not I will tie the foamulator. Carl Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mozes 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2006 I'm the one with a hopper. It is cool with me. My hopper is super easy to tie and it is second best producing fly in my box after EHC. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdeyette 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2006 Definitely tie your Charlie Boy Hopper, I'm sure the two will look very different. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tdeyette 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2006 Moushka, First, welcome to the forum! Unfortunately, this swap is full. Novice tiers are always welcome in a swap that's how you learn, by the sharing of ideas. Keep checking out the fly swap section as there are always new swaps starting. There may even be some openings in some of the other current swaps. Sorry. Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
