Favorite trout nymph swap

Recommended Posts

Just got back from putting the flies in the mail. I even remembered to include toe tags for this swap. :)

 

Sherri, I included a couple of extra for your cause and also a couple of other producers for the Lower Illinois. In my group of fishing buddies we call them Rick's River Crack. I included a Yellow one and a Pink one.

 

Thanks for hosting the swap.

Thank you in advance. I just recently started fishing there again. I was off for a year with my daughter who was injured in a wreck and then when I came back the fishing wasn't so great there. If you don't mind me asking are you from near there?

Mine are in the mail along with 9 dozen extra. I have a lot of inventory left from when I did contract tying for numerous shops around Montana. I did an extra dozen of the swap fly and put in 8 dozen of flies that I thought would help in a good cause.

Sherri, I live in Owasso, OK. Just north of Tulsa. The Lower Illinois is the closest trout stream that I can get to. It's an hour and a half from my driveway to my boots in the water fishing. :) Have a look at The OzarkAnglers Forum. It is a great resource for the Lower Illinois fishing reports as well as all of the Rivers, Lakes and Tailwaters in the Ozarks.

Haven't seen them yet Herman but there is a package at the post office waiting for me with postage due, so maybe that is it.
