On a completely different note but related to the swap: my wife was a little concerned about the ADULT stonefly swap until I explained that there were no NYMPHS involved. Funny how the language works. Down to two patterns for the swap - still thinking. Jimboha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimboha! 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Oh, yeah, two continents. I forgot. I only try to tease you Bob because I can't out-tie you. I've changed my mind - no-one else seems to have chosen a Golden Stimulator in #6 or maybe #8. There must be 20 stimulator color combinations, but I'll do a pale yellow rear/golden amber front to more simulate a golden stone fly. I'll post a pic as soon as I can. Jimboha!

djgunter 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2012 Jimboha, I figured out a solution to our problem. How about sending my flies from the previous swap to Troutguy along with the flies from this swap?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
