Jeff Kimball 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2006 Ok.. 9 so far.. lets get some actions guys.... here's the scene: It's July, you're on a beautiful big lake with some friends in a huge bass boat. The other guys have got spinning gear and sluggos but WHAT'S THAT!? the bikini clad girls ask? "A fly rod?!". " WOW that's cool!". AH. but only if you had of taken part in the clouser swap so you'd have something to tie on that tippet and impress your friends (and more specifically their girlfriends friends). DON'T let it happen to you Stud-muffin! Join clouser swap #2 and win! :ban: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Termite 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2006 I'M IN!....My first swap....do we tell what we are tying or just tie them and send em'? Termite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deeky 0 Report post Posted March 11, 2006 Termite - I'd say fill us in, otherwise we might end up with 6 of the same thing (although I'll be lucky to get six of my own to look exactly the same). My question is - what size eyes do you like? I've got 1/8" and 3/16" right now on a size 4 hook. Some like them heavy, some not. Biggest voice gets their choice.

flyrod98 0 Report post Posted March 12, 2006 I just got the book Clouser's Flies and last night I got a utility knife out and hacked apart all my earlier attempts at clousers because they sucked. I had tested some of those in a pan of water and some didn't turn over and ride point up. I am not to concerned about the eye size as long as they are heavy enough to turn the fly over properly. Mine will be on a size 2 S71 SS. Don't know the colors yet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
