Horseshoes 0 Report post Posted July 23, 2009 Thank you rich5665 thank you. It is good to know when to stop. A person could just keep on tying and never come up for air. :hyst: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigDaddyHub 0 Report post Posted July 27, 2009 With everything going on this week, I planned ahead and finished mine last week. Note that my fly is a beadchain Clouser (baby bass) that I have been fishing in shallow water still waters this summer....it has a slow sink rate...you may want to add weight or shot to your leader when fishing my particular fly if you prefer a faster sink or will be fishing moving water....I know the deadline is still several weeks out, but I can't wait to see all the great ties!!

deserttrout 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2009 I have to apologize for not staying in contact. as most of you know I started treatment for an illness eight weeks ago. The first two weeks were OK but since then, after my weekly injection, I am bed ridden for two or three days (this time four) Seems the meds build up in your system. When not in bed, I have no coordination, motivation, energy or appetite (I have lost 15 lbs since starting). What is worse is that I can't even fish!!! Enough about me - now to our gigantic swap. I have received four packages of flys from you all and two more are on their way that I know of. We also have had two dropouts. Remember that flys are due 30 Aug. OBTW: The flys are looking great :headbang: Address Jim Phillips PO Box 848 Herlong, CA 96113 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich5665 0 Report post Posted August 2, 2009 I'm having issues tying the Coppertone Blonde. Can I switch to something easier. Perhaps a bloodworm if that's ok. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
