Just found out about this, so I'm in but I still gotta decide. It's a TBD for me. Thanks!

Message me an address Rich, think I'll do up some "legs alive caddis'" in a brown, size 14. I'll go by the bank and get some US cash for the return postage if that's alright with you?!?!?

If you will take a lost American in Nova Scotia , I'll join this one with a TBD later :lol:

In Canada we consider you a Canadian who found his senses! :yahoo:

Well truth is, I have been considering dual citizenship for a while. They haven't ran me out o' country yet , and I only get called a "@%#$% American" on rare occasion now, so I may just stick around a while... :hyst:

Sounds like a great swap I was too slow for. By the way I am originally from Wisconsin and the Canadians tell me I sound like a regular guy. How about that Yogi!

Rich,

 

It's gonna be a #16 X-Caddis for me. OldHat turned me on to this fly earlier this year, and it's been a go-to all summer. Had a day of non-stop action on Saturday using just this one fly :-)

I'm going to go "Old School" with the very first fly I learned to tie, "Grey Hackle Yellow (dry)". 55 years ago I think I tied it on a size 10, but will do a #14 for this swap. :D

Rich, please PM your addy. Flies are tied...just need to make the tags and send 'em off.

Hook: dry fly, std or 1xl

Thread: black or tan

Tail: light elk

Body: tan dubbing

Wing: light elk

Hackle: light ginger

 

(I used Fly Rite "#22 Cahill Tan" dubbing, tan Uni 6/0, and Whiting hackle on a #14 std dry hook)

 

Yeah, yeah, I know it's not the best picture. Using my old camera (which I messed up the settings) on a new computer

with lousy editor. In other words, my skills are limited and I'm feeling lazy.
