Congratulations to your daughter! Did she cook the beast as well? (Not being sexist here. I am the cook in our family and I should think wild turkey would provide a mighty challenge to any chef.)

 

Your pattern looks very good. Sounds like it could be an Atlantic salmon fly. I see we are continuing the food motif!

 

Professori: I can't wait to see what you do with this one.

Thank you Sharon. If its not a problem to tye up one more, please do send an extra. If everyone agrees, we can be the Evo Thirteen. If not, I will send the extras back to their makers.

 

We are still waiting to hear from half of our swappers.

Fast food straight from professori's Chum Bucket. Looking good!

 

Sjo- It's time to crawl out of bed and mutate.

I don't care how many. Doesn't take a minute to tie 'er up. I'll tie until I run out of material or wife beats me, whichever comes first ...

mmmm, possum. Time for a road kill hunt ...

Rockworm, mine are in the mail and headed your way. I hit my back on a lift at work yesterday and went home early because it was hurting. I got up this morning and it was still feeling fairly rough so I just got lazy and stayed home. Since I was already home and the flies were laying on my desk then why not take a little ride to the post office instead of waiting until the weekend. I put 16 flies in the box so either add more swappers or keep the extras. Thank for hosting.

Take care,

Tony

Take good care of your back. I hurt mine at work decades ago and it still goes out from time to time. I will be watching eagerly for the first of this year's Evo flies.

My flies are ready; forgive me if I've missed something, but I don't seem to have the address?

I'm so pleased that you all made it possible for this old horse to comp(l)ete again!

Name: fryed chum tube

 

I only substitute the hook with a tube. The hackle will be partridge instead of grizzly.

 

So nice to be back in!

 

Cheers

Sjo.

Sjo- Good to hear from you.

 

DavidHE- You are up.

Wheels are spinning. Hopefully when the smoke clears, an evolved (or at least mutated) pattern will emerge. I can say I will not stick with the tube. I've never even held a tube fly, so tying one for the lot of you would be a disservice.
