Fly Tying

Classic Steelhead fly swap

Recommended Posts

I have hooked them on an Orange glow bug.  I prefer to swing flies.  Next project is to learn to tie Spey flies.  Guess I drank the Kool-aid.

In the mail!  I went ahead and sent flies to Bob Nelson, who withdrew due to his wife's illness.  If you had room in your envelopes, i put in some woven cords from Flatrock Native.  Outstanding flies,  gentlemen.

Thanks DP, and fyi there are some rare or useful hanks of (macrame) polyolefin yarn to which our venerable Swift Manager refers.  Have more too, like 2 hay bales...

Can someone with good camera skills photograph the set and post it?

I'll post some photos when received, and let you guys be the judge of my photo skills.

Received an excellent package yesterday, works of art all of them.  As promised, a photo of the flies:
