WWKimba 0 Report post Posted April 12, 2021 Unfortunately, we had a last minute drop in this swap. I included an extra gift - for a hint check out here - beginner tying technique and tying the killer bug - Beginner's Corner - Fly Tying (flytyingforum.com). I did include the directions for this special fly BUT it was 2 AM and I omitted/(glossed over?!)/(had a VERY senior moment!!) a couple of the steps - or you can just say I SCREWED UP!!! At step #2, after the wire is locked down - hold the tying wire down and helicopter the tag end off (or cut/snip). On step #3 - after the yarn is anchored with a couple turns you can cut off the tag OR (for a smoother transition) simply unwind the yarn and, holding near the anchor point, simply pull to unravel the yarn. Lastly, on step #5 - if you whip finish the wire then helicopter it off (if you simply wrap to end then snip/cut). Now you can avoid a casting a fly with wire flying all over the place! Check your PM's for your tracking # and thanks again for a fine swap series and I hope you all had fun! "Till next time, tight lines my friends!

Shmang 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2021 Got the swap flies today and they are GREAT! Nice job by everyone. Some of the patterns in the swap will be great for Trout, Panfish, and Bass so color me happy with the variety. Thanks to WWKimba for being a superior Swap Meister and for the extra goodies - it is appreciated. Take care, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris_in_Louisiana 0 Report post Posted April 17, 2021 Received a great little pack of terrestrials in USPS today. Perfect timing too. The rain has finally stopped after a week of thunderstorms and torrential downpours. Looking forward to putting these to good use on some of the local bass and sunfish. Thanks again for hosting, Kim!! Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swmalone 0 Report post Posted April 18, 2021 Received the flies today and they look great. I didn't have many terrestrials so I'm really looking forward to trying these. Thanks @WWKimba for all of the additional goodies and hosting the swaps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
