monthly swap pics...streamers

Recommended Posts

So I'm hoping I give the right people credit but someday I'll figure out how to tag pics. In the meantime I just try to give the correct credits.

 

These would be my contribution...

Wow those are really really nice looking set of flies!!! vicrider don't forget to combine ship these with the green herl swap that we are in. It's going to be a few days before I can get out so no rush. That sinus infection I had 3 weeks ago turned into pneumonia so I'm stuck inside in bed with my smart phone. Day time TV sucks! I have satellite and I cannot believe the crap I am paying for...Oh yeah I forgot that's the reason why I took up this hobbie cause there ain't crap on TV anymore! LOL

Hey vicrider, I'd love to take credit for the other fly but I only supplied the Platte River Special on the left (gold, yellow & red).

 

Keep it reel!

J-Kno, I tried to give ya' extra credit. LOL Don't know yet whose the extra was but there was a few of them in there. Hopefully everyone gets all the ones they should and one of their own back on this month.

Haha the bucktail under J-Kno is mine, as well as the brown bugger. The bucktail is my primary fly for the swap, the bugger is a test run with the body made of the marabou twisted into a rope, let me know if you use it and the marabou comes off, it may need wire counter-wrapped in future versions if the marabou uncoils on most of them.

 

Streamers are probably my favorite fly style to fish, and this will be a nice little addition to the streamer box.... oh wait it's already overflowing, guess I need another fly box.

Sorry for that Kennebec. I knew someone had had two in the swap and when I shot I wrote down the names as I took the pics but attributed the double set to wrong name. All in all a great swap. I also use streamers a lot when I get to fish and really like the sizes from 10 and smaller for panfish.
