Love your classic wets

All great. Love the wee bucktails

All the same chicken.

If you are tying with synthetics, their stuff is great and low cost. I have liked all of the FTD products that I have tried.

You guys are stepping it up this month. Great flies!

Kim was a true ambassador for fly tying. He was a big hearted person.

I assume this swap is closed due to our tragic loss. RIP Kim.

That is such sad news. We are never prepared to lose a friend.

"It is a matter of considerable indifference to the fish," John Gerach He also said tying flies is like a witch's cauldron, materials need to be hard to find, vaguely obscure, and a little bit disgusting. It's better if you get it from some farm kid than a fly shop. It has to be the right stuff. Like urine stained fur from the belly of a female fox. Lol. That being said, I love tying soft hackles with Partridge, Grouse, hen ( cheap ones from India are fine for larger flies), pheasant, and Quail. They all work if not too stiff.

Do these work well? Not trying to be a smarta##. One of the deals in the gear fishing world is that a true Senko has not been really duplicated even with other plastics. It quivers a special way on the fall and is soft and salty. However, these would seem to me to work, but I agree with the above post, nothing works like soft plastic. Some even cast small plastic lizards and worms with a fly rod and some cast flies for warm water under a bubble.

Norm, great feather wings. Fruit roll up, those are some cool flies!

I will join. I am always amazed and gratified by people who mail their flies in before the sign up deadline.

I have had no success marrying wings. Great job!

Your Durham Ranger is a beauty.
