Just what the doctor ordered. My "perscription" came today. Some really incredible midges. Glad I examined the inside of the envelope, yes, there were some loose flies in there. Thanks John for hosting a second round. Hopefully next year, I can still see well enough to tie up a bunch again. Those glo-lites are something else. I will have to get my maginfier out to really appreciate the work everyone put into these.

recieved my flies today realy great flies everyone. Alpine fly i love htose glo lite emerger thingys and thanks for hosting

cant wait to see these flies but just an idea for your next swap, im in another swap that ties one extra fly per person and they donate a box to casting for recovery, just thought that would be a good idea thanks.

hey sounds good ill tie a flashback pheasant tail nymph. i wanna start tying now but i have to wait a few days to get a new vise at the somerset show. cant wait to tie.

nice, put me first on your list. as far as fly wise i was thinking maybe a winter fly swap. maybe you could have everyone tye their favorite winter fly

im in tbd

thanks guys their still alive and you can see the wings turning colors its cool. Im curious to see what they look like when they hatch

so i bought some of Wapsi's egg yarn to tie up some eggs....and i have watched numerous youtube videos on how to tie them but all the videos there use mcfly foam and my eggs dont turn out like the ones tied with mcfly...so my question is....is there a big difference between the two brands or should both brands work equally the same?

 

thanks :wallbash:

hey. i never thought their was much of a diference. but if your having trouble rounding your egg very litley burn it with a litter its should round it more.

i found some caddis in a stream and took them home. their not in their case but their in a cocoon type thing. so my question is is their anyway to keep them alive and let them hatch. thanks

haha i would tell you but then id have to kill you :gun_bandana: .haha :j_k:

This morning i went fishing at one of my favorite rivers the lehigh river. we know a secret spot their where we catch twenty plus fish every day,its basically a small water fall. so i was fishing the pool down below theh falls and out of no where my dad and i see a older couple just walkin. and so we talked to them a little and they seemed nice but we eventualy went are seperate ways. to get to the point as i started nymphing i had a fish take my fly and just as i set my hook i turn my head and bam theirs the couple bare naked waiting to swim where i was fishing. it was hard to hold back are laughs but we left very quickly. so i wanted to know what was your scariest funniest day of fishing.

Sorry guys, haven't been on the internet lately.

 

 

Anyways, No prob Wernstruimph, I understand.
