  1. I’m in, thanks! Can I get back to you with specific pattern?
  2. SilverCreek and Poopdeck are right, correct proportions and reverse engineering are the way to go. Another trick you might fry for hackle is to soak the feathers in water before you wrap them. I’ve found that it keeps me from breaking the hackle stem when tying them on. Hope this helps! AG
  3. The photos are working fine for me on the website, just not in the email notification.This wasn’t the only thread that had the same issue with in the email pics. Thanks for sharing this!
  4. Great tips, thanks for taking the time to share! Will take your advice tomorrow at the tying bench!
  5. Couldn’t agree more! Thanks, Nick!
  6. Yeah, I started to cut everything off and start over with dubbing and marabou. I was also concerned about the weed guard. It’s 30# Maxima, but 15# & 20# just seemed too limp for bassing. I should’ve done the weed guard first instead of last, but I figured if anyone doesn’t want it, it’s easy enough to cut it off. I kept the two ugliest ones for myself, hope to catch a mudfish with them. This is only my second swap, so I appreciate those of you who act as swapmasters. Hope it’s worth your time and effort. This has been fun! Thanks!
  7. In the mail today. Ended up with more of a weedless sparkle bugger, hope y’all like ‘em. After you receive them I’d appreciate your feedback for how to do it better next time.
  8. Thanks, Nick. I have yet to catch a mudfish with a fly rod, but that’s the goal! Hope some from this swap will be just the ticket. This is only my second swap, Darrell’s panfish swap we just finished was my first. Really appreciate y’all putting these together!
  9. I’m in. Unbalanced sparkle minnow or some other kind of streamer.
  10. Hi, Chris. I just finished my flies (epoxy minnow) and am mailing them tomorrow. Hope they meet expectations. Thanks for letting me participate, and thanks for being the swapmeister!
  11. Appreciate the explanation. I’ll \give it a try. Never had much luck with the mono guard myself. Thanks!
  12. First pass at a zonked variant. The next one will have a more uniform belly. Not sure what other specifics I should change. Please weight in.
