Piker20 0 Report post Posted October 26, 2012 yep, just something (I use paper) attached to hook with your name on so the swap organiser can ensure they don't send you back your fly, and the folk receiving flies know who tied them. Some flies I have received have had the recipe for the fly attached which is good when it proves productive and I can tie up some more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Post the line up when they are all in so we can see the results. Hey Salty: Just checked out your profile and found out your about 25 minutes away. When this swap is completed I will get in touch with you to try out some of the flies, with me, if you'd appreciate that. I also still have all of the flies from the Snook Swap. After all that is what swaps is all about- sharing patterns Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Panama Red 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2012 I just worked up a makeshift photo studio hoping to do the flies and the folks who tied them justice when they arrive. Gotta clean up one of these days Seems to work fairly well (not swap flies) Will keep working at it and post a complete lineup once all flies have arrived.
