MOst of my bridge tarpon have been caught on large shrimp patterns tied in white and tan.

 

 

Just put mine in the mail box. Keneth K, should be just the ticket for your tarpon, according to backcast. Hope the kwan fly works for you.

Just a reminder to everyone there are only 8 days left before the deadline of this swap. Sofar I have recieved 3 sets of flies, and have pmed everyone that has asked for my adress if anyone still needs the adress please pm me for it. I hope htat this finds everyone in good health.

I found out last nite that my grandmother had a massive heart attack lastnite and that they are going to do some sort of surgery on her today so If I dont reply to a pm right away or reply to this thread that is why. I will try to stay on topo this but........... Gmom is more on my mind right now.

Anyway have fun tying I think that this will end up being the best swap for salt that I have been involved in so far(usualy not a big turn out) I have gotten some nice flies so far and cant wait to see what everyone else is sending

thanks for joining

Jim

That's great bassturd, but if I were you I couldn't wait. Especially if the stripers are running. For all you do, I would think that's fair.
