djtrout 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2014 Flies came in yesterday's mail. Thanks all - high quality. I used to be funny about using only my own ties, but this swap business, this particular bunch of folks, well - can't wait to wet some of these!

vicrider 0 Report post Posted August 22, 2014 Got down to PO finally and picked up my flies. Great job as usual. Also had another one in for the EPI swap so that's getting close. CannonX, It's a swap, not a contest. I am going to make it point to have your fly on first when heat lets up and can get to the bluegill pond. They're going to love it I'm sure. Don't have trout around here but if I make the White River like I plan a lot of swap flies are going to be getting wet. I plan to be there in Oct. and one thing I'll try is some of the big streamers from some of the swaps to see if I can entice one of the true trophy browns. I have a bamboo Para17 8.5' rod that needs to be tested. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djtrout 0 Report post Posted August 23, 2014 CannonX, ditto vicrider's comment. All my flies, yours in there somewhere, are more than fishable and I can't wait to give them a try. I'll go through miles of leader in no time from changing out my swap flies ... You'll take your craft as far as you desire; but as far as the fish go, you're already on their terrorist watch list as one of those fisher dudes that keeps fooling them.
