Dave, talk to Evan at Feather-Craft in St. Louis, MO, USA, to see if they will help, too! Just talked to helpful Saleswoman about my addiction, she said Evan is go-to guy, liaison for Clubs.

 

Now that I have your attention... I am getting a 12-pack assortment of pretty good ties together. If the quality standard was lowered a little bit from photogenic, to say: those that are: durable and catch fish, but not sloppy work, I could add about 3 dozen, real quick... Just curious....

[Li'lDave 0]

Haha.

 

Fish catchers are what we need. But a dozen ties is all you need to do mate.

Got 15 tied now, ty a Hopper tommorrow & get em in the post next week! Got no phesant feathers to make a Mrs Simpson, Sorry!

I get that. Just trying to do a little extra to rep the ftf brand, and set a good example -to make up for running my mouth- being a bad example, and, now this is personal,too. I also will be a Survivor in a few months... Just saying

 

A little crazy but tied sorta well:

And a crap hopper finnishes my 16 flies! FRn! Just wondering how those flies fit in with the types, colours & sizes specified by the organizers of the event?

[Flat Rock native 0]

ok, Adam, you got me. You know the answer. Because I have a hard time following RULES!

[Flat Rock native 0]

And, these were just from WW Pike Panfish excess... The trout examples do not show up well in a group photo..

[Flat Rock native 0]

Here is examples of what I mean.

 

referring left to right positions 1-4

 

I would submit 4 to normal Swap, maybe 1.

 

I would fish all of them, my trout here are big and "unseasoned."

 

Are 1, 2, and 3 good enough for this swap?

Okay, I've been a little slow getting going on this. I've got 3 Klinkhammers so far, plan to do a Hans W. CDC one feather OBO emerger, Hare's ear Prince nymph and damsel nymph. I should be able to get them out this week now that I have that pesky FRN off my back and can send hoping to beat the Christmas delivery schedule.

[Li'lDave 0]

It's all good everyone. we've got plenty of time.

 

Flatrock, everything is fine.

 

I have asked for only a dozen ties for each set, being a mix of ties as per the list.

 

When all of the sets arrive I will sort the boxes out so that there will be a mix that fits the request.

 

For any that are excess I will re-sort either as little bonus packs OR for their silent auction in order to raise some funds for the event.
