niveker 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2020 Henryville Specials hit the PO this morning, ETA is 3/30. Tracking # sent by PM. I forgot to snap a quick pic before sending them off. Thanks for hosting these quick rounds BB, I enjoyed the 2 I participated in. Will probably lay off any more swaps as the season approaches. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
professori 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2020 I'm having real issues with accessing this site. Finally took a stab at it on Safari (I hate it as a browser but I can't connect on Chrome???). I retrieved your address from a previous swap and the Borden's beetle bugs are on their way. Hope everyone is doing well in these unsettled times.

breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2020 Sorry, Professori, that you are having trouble. Not sure what the problem could be. I’m on Chrome. No problems. I will let you know when your flies arrive. BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2020 When I went to the mail box last night, it was stuffed full-size! FOUR sets of flies, and they are all of great quality. The there are Mark Knapp, Professori, Johnw1986 and r2736. Great work, guys, and thanks for being a part of the swap. NOW, I have gotten all sorts of extras, which I always appreciate. However, Johnw1986, I am going to need for you to help me out with yours. What is La-Co Slic-tite and what do I do with it? It says it’s for difficult thread applications, and I DO have trouble with my tying thread at times. Will it help me tie off when I tie parachutes?

Johnw1986 0 Report post Posted March 31, 2020 I’ve found that when tying in the hackle for parachutes, if you face the hook downward, post facing out, it makes it a lot easier to hold the hacker in place while whip finishing Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted April 3, 2020 This is a pic I took of the flies I sent. I told the story earlier but this fly was a favorite of President Eisenhower and also one of mine to tie and use if I get to trout. Bluegill will blast it of course but there's flies a lot simpler to tie than this bluegill will just as readily fight over as to who gets it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
