singletrack 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2014 Anyone interested in swapping west coast surf patterns? I tie mostly for California surf. Species such as Surf Perch, Corbina, and Stripers.

sniperfreak223 0 Report post Posted February 1, 2014 I'll get in on this with a Corbina Candy and a Thin Lizzie. Just need to make a materials run, as I don't really tie many saltwater patterns. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singletrack 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2014 Sounds like great choices. I will do my worm fly. It's a local pattern called the Zen worm. It just slays perch and pretty much anything else in the water. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted February 2, 2014 You list two differnet due dates. March 30th and March 5th. If getting in I'd need time to make sure I had parts and pieces for a decent effort and need clarification on you due date. Actually, that would be different.

tim980 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2014 Hi, I'm new to this forum. I hope I can be included in the swap. I would like to tie a Q's Beach Bug. Thanks, Tim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tim980 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2014 How many flies do we tie for each participant other than ourselves? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
singletrack 0 Report post Posted February 4, 2014 Just one fly pre person. So if we get five people you will need to tie 5 flys. You won't get your flies back just one fly from each person so five new patterns for you. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2014 C'mon guys, I've already got a set started with eyes tied and superglued so let's fill this swap out and have some fun. Patterns I've been studying are not that hard but look like fun. Check this link and go from there on ideas what others think works in the surf. http://onesurffly.com/surf-flies-2/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
