I somehow missed that this was going on.

 

In for $20. Will paypal shortly... might have to do a transfer first.

 

In for 40 flies as well.

 

Better get tying. It's odd how rarely I seem to tie for myself anymore. TU events, stuff like this, swaps, etc. That's not a complaint - I love it!

BUMP - ing this back up to the top.

 

I've tied up a bunch o' size 14 beadhead hare's ears so far... and my 9 year old has tied up a few size 10s to contribute, as well!

 

He's also helped out by sitting at the kitchen table with a tray, a bowl of beads, some hooks and a piece of foam... dozens of hooks with beads on thanks to his little fingers, ready to go!!

Steeldrifter I just got back from the post office. I'm sending you some flies for your Reel Recovery program.

Steeldrifter, I just noticed this and would be proud to be included. I'm running a little low on hooks and have no time to order any, but I could send a variety of flies if thats acceptable. Im sure that mine aren't as good as some of the other members, but I will give it my best shot.

I have my 40+ complete, as well, and plan to get to the post office in the next day or two. Mostly beadhead hares ears, plus some bitty black caddis nymphs that have proven to be killer. A couple foam beetles, too, that should catch fish on just about any piece of inland water.
