Andrewfly fishing

That sound great! If someone hosts it put it up by the mane of "terrestrial/baitfish swap" , so that it can be easilly recognized.

In the article about choosing hooks, there was a picture on the cover of that article with a salmon made from hooks chasing a fly. Who could tell me what that fly was.

Thats a awsome cricket pattern.

Hey, Pike Hunter! Where is St. Michael in MN? Is it by the cities? I am also in Minnesota. I mostly use Wooly buggers for Smallies, since it kind can be taken as anything in a lake, whether a nymph, crayfish, or baitfish. But a good pattern that represents something meaty in a pond is a Mrs. Simpson (at least I think that is what it is called). Works well on Lake Vermillion up here.

Yep, you got the name right. THe Mrs. Simpson is the best, I also use it for trout on biger rivers like the Ottawa river.

If I am correct, thats everyone now?

Sent my flies on Thursday with a toonie !

Thanks alote guys!!!!!!!

hEY A LISTEN, thERES BEEN A LITTLE PROBLEM WITH THE POSTAGE, I cant send a pre-paid envelope to the U.S. because I live in Canada (thats what the mailman said at least) So I son't know what to do. I know I shouldn't send money for you to pay but I don't exactly know what other sort of way I could have the postage paid. And I don't have acces to american stamps.

Help me out guys!

sending mine by the end of this week.

Where is all of the info, like your addres and phone number?

I got to send it don't I?

Nearlly done my flies, making dark hendrickson nymph! Size 12

I am in.

Same here, my patterens will be simple, but effective.

Thank you mdntn, I'm sure andrewfly tyer will appreciate you holding the swap. I'm only 1/4 of the way done on my current swap so it would have been a while before I could have hosted. If I finish by the end of the week and he doesn't make this one then I'll host one as well :yahoo: Have fun SM good luck on hosting your first swap.

What sort of swap would you do?

If I do join ( witch is very likely) I will probably do an asortament of wets drys and nymphs.

What a nice clean mouth body, just the way it should be.

Hey guys, I was woundering if the swap could be with flies in sizes 10-18?

Yea, sorry about all that confusion, What I emant is just a swap with few amount of people.

Oh well, at least it made good conversation. And by the way, what are you readding my profile for anyway!

P.s. Just pulling your leg about the whole profile thing!

Quick quick, can't wait ti'll pics come!

Anyone want to organize a small swap?

Wow.

Great Idea, do you think that just ordinairy brown hackel will work?

For the body, instaed of using dubbing, what about ysing peacock hearl?

Daddy Long Legs / Crane flies are my favorite summer flies. They are big, fat beasts and oh so out of place on the water

Only thing which comes close are the Bibios in May.

 

For the legs I use knotted pheasant tail, nothing beats it in appereance and mobility.

 

I agree.

Can somone show me some simple to tie but effective spinner imitations for mayflies?
