Thanks for posting pics of everyone's swap flies. I think they are a great set and I can't wait to get them wet.

What in world did you do to my fly avril???? Did you lick the tails to cause them to clump up, cause i dont tie clumped up tails like that??? It Looks awful in that picture, and i know all my flies looked like the one i pictured back on page 1. Same with dezods ant. Its a fantastic tie but your pick does no justice.

Hey Johny,

I posted pictures for frame of reference so that when we catch the big one, we know who to thank. Perhaps we can all post a picture of our tie with recipe. Nice picture of yours on Page 1. Pictures are off.
