  1. Thundercreek is a great beginners swap.
  2. Flytire is the toilet broken because Boston's season keeps going down it? We will look for you next time. LOL PJ2 I may need you.
  3. Bait fish from the Vicrider baitfish hair
  4. Walton's Thumb https://www.amazon.com/Waltons-Thumb-Fishermans-Multi-Tool/dp/B013PZNQN4?ie=UTF8&hvadid=94131329309&hvdev=c&hvexid=&hvnetw=g&hvpone=&hvpos=1t1&hvptwo=&hvqmt=e&hvrand=897153531232800509&ref=pd_sl_643q7gvcc5_e&tag=googhydr-20
  5. Mikechell that fly is scarring the children
  6. Badger, coyote and gray fox have similar guard hair color. They can easily be separated from the under fur. The under fur is a nice cream or gray. Any light colored nymph or dry fly. I have seen people wrap it like floss on smaller flies. The guard hair are great for streamers. They make a dynamite Thundercreek creek shiner (hint Thundercreek swap). Use a dubbing loop with or without guard hair and make great thick bodies. Borax the skin and it will last for years
  7. Need tiers for Thundercreeks. Several openings
  8. I will mail these out today or tomorrow. They are a Deceiver style fly in a real popular color on the Outer Banks.
  9. Barn Owl or other owl by looking at the leading edges of the feather, it isn't sharp. Owls have tattered or fringed edges
  10. A nice fly with a lot of action. Stripers, Blues and Spanish love this one.
  11. Piker I wished you would join. I am fussy about hooks, but the best trout sized for small TC's are to be had in my local convenience store. The Eagle Claw Aberdeens. People use them for fishing crickets for brim or bream. Very long shank, thin wire straight eye with a perfect bend.
  12. Vicrider, funny, I need to proof read better. I meant black bear. I am not even familiar with those brands, I haven't drank a beer in over twenty-five years. I can only blame mistakes on stupidity these days.
  13. I was in a Thundercreek swap a few years ago and someone tied Emerald Shiner TC's. Please join and tie those again?
  14. Vicrider you are number two. What TC are you tying?
  15. I loved the idea of twelve patterns picked by the swapmeister. I will do that sometime. Funny and inventive
  16. Flytire - Great ideas. I started one based on your suggestions. I hope you join. Thanks for the ideas.
  17. Great step by step http://www.flyanglersonline.com/flytying/fotw2/071105fotw.php
