Flies in the mail. keep the extras for hosting.

Wish I could help you... I'm in Michigan asking the same question to pretty much... I know of where some are here, but with out a boat I don't know where to go...If you come to SE Michigan I could give you some places to try...

I'm going up to the Kalkaska area of Michigan's Lower Peninsula Friday after work, roughly a 4.5 hour drive... Hoping to catch some brown trout and some steelhead. Plan on using some new tube flies and streamers I just tied up last night. Going to try the Pere Marquette and Manistee Rivers... This is my first time ever going for trout or steelhead, or even really going anywhere to fly fishing other than the pond out front. I'm really excited!!!!!

whos goin? Where at? What "new" fly is gonna get the big one? What you going for? Who's got the longest drive ahead of them? Maybe after the weekend we can start posting up our big catches!!!

If you have one of those gps's for your car, there is a feature on that you can use for geocashing... that's what I do.

Haven't been on this site for that long of a time, but am on quite a bit. I could always help you guys out...this is a great site, and glad I ran across it one day...

yeah,i hear ya... spring semester starts in 2 weeks for me... 1 class, 3 nights a week, 3.5 hours each night... can you say fun?

I hear ya with being busy studying... I'm done after this week so I should be able to get more time tying instead of homework and school... What ya majoring in?

You guys want to wait for Mr. Utah's to arrive? I will have them this week and out the door the day after I get them...

Very nice job. How long do those take roughly to make?

Flies will be in the mail Monday. Received nice sets from everyone but JohnnyUtah... Seemed to have lost touch with him and haven't heard anything from him since the last post in this thread. Hope you guys had fun with this one, I did. Have a good Easter.

Got mine yesterday, Thanks for hosting.

Here is my first attempt at a foam frog...got the pattern from a different site I go on... With a little practice it should come out nice. Do you guys have a color preference? I have many colors to choose from... These were just the top three layers from the foam pile...(Belly is dark green, can't see it from these pics)

I'll have mine in the mail Monday morning. Thanks for Hosting. Keep the extras

Just got mine :yahoo: ! They look Great! Can't wait to use them up north! Thanks for Hosting!

Well, I should have my first proto type finished tonight after I get home from school... then takin it to the pond (although it's to cold for them bass to bite) to see how it looks on the water. Will post pictures of it when finished for comments or ideas.

Yeah, I've been thinkin about doin a block head popper recently but just been so busy with all the other swaps haven't really sat down to do it yet...I see these flies catching a lot of bass in my future though :yahoo:

I can do a dozen stone flies if you want to fill the last spot.... Can have them in the mail early next week.

Glad you liked them

I loved them all Mowest. I like bass poppers for some reason... I like tossin the big flies in the water and seeing the big bass come up after it...can't wait til it is warm enough here to use them! The weather has been so crazy around here I was almost tempted to get my ice shanty back out :hyst:

JOHNNYUTAH- Haven't heard from you in a while, just checking in with the due date fast approaching...

Got some nice flies from Canada and notenoughtoys...looks good!

got mine. look awesome. good job everyone!!!!!

Yup, Been using a squirrel I got before the season closed for dubbing material, and plan on using the tail for possibly some muddler minnows...

go ahead and keep my extra for hosting
