Scud Swap 2006

Recommended Posts

geo,

 

Hey thanks! I will be including 2 patterns I am tying myself to send back.

 

I just noticed the swap has only a month left so I started tying them up last night.

 

Been working on Steelhead and nymph patterns. When I get these done I've got a bunch of foam flies to tie for another swap. That will get me caught up and I'll need to join some more swaps. :dunno:

 

Guess I'm ..... Swap....... CRAZY! :hyst: :hyst:

 

Really, I have seen my flies get a lot better since I started tying in swaps.

 

Another plus are the great patterns you get from around the country.

 

Thanks Again

Good news...

My UV Ice Scuds have been fired off by way of the USPS. I expect these scuds to have great accuracy in hitting their target before the June 15 deadline.

 

Threader, I've included an extra set for your efforts. Thanks!

Thanks for having me back in this swap!

The flies have left the building and will be at the SM around this weekend. I tied three patterns, but forgot to make a list of used things for my scuds.

There's one sili-skin-scud from Jason Akl ( http://www.bigfishtackle.com/articles/fish...-Skin_Scud.html ) but not that fussie and the other is from:

Both patterns are a bit different than the flies I tied

:D
