famill00 0 Report post Posted January 27, 2013 For June, those of us in the SMB/LMB tying club are going to be tying "Classic Flies". A classic fly is a very general category. What I hope to get from this is some flies that have stood the test of time. Use your imagination, do your research, and tie up any oldie but goodie! Please post your selection once you make it so I can update this post. All swap rules apply: * Send your flies in a container that is crushproof. Keep in mind that some of these flies may be larger than the ones you send in. Please send an appropriate size container. *Toetag your flies with your screen name and the name of the fly. Also put on there "LMB/SMB Club" because it will help keep these flies separate from any other swaps. * Include a self addressed stamped envelope for the return of your flies. Please do NOT send something that is metered. You must use real stamps or the post office will not accept it. I know, stupid rule on their part, but we have to follow it. * Either post the recipe here or PM it to me. I will, each month, photo each fly and put the recipe with it on this thread. 1) Me - Swapmaster - Big Wooly-bugger (Because we often forget about this staple when it comes to bass) DONE2) Zachxbass - Mickey Finn3) Eugward4) Eastern fly - RECEIVED5) Joman - Nova - RECEIVED6) Rich mc -Forrest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

zachxbass 0 Report post Posted July 1, 2013 I haven't checked in in awhile, my flies should have arrived by now. Mailed them on Monday. If they don't get there today I'll retie them. If they do come in then I'll just have extras to fish with. Let me know when/if they arrive Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

famill00 0 Report post Posted July 6, 2013 Zach, sent you a PM, but your first set did not arrive. I will look for the second set and return one set if both happen to show up. -Forrest Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
