Streamer Swap

Recommended Posts

Thank God this thing finally filled up before the temptation to join in grew too strong.

 

I just can't get into another swap, yet. This fall and winter, I'll be in all of 'em, though! Just way far behind on nymphs and a few other things, and still too slow a tier.

steeldrifter,

 

Alright... Was going to tie some up on 4/0 or 5/0 stainless. But the last swap I did some 3/0 for ocean and they looked like Godzilla next to everyone else's.

 

Over here on the west coast, Oregon, not California, we use 2/0 and 3/0 for the Bottom fish. A lot of times they will school on the top and we can get some good ones, 5-8 lbs on flies.

 

How about a size 4 in a 4x long? Can you guys use that size?

Picked out a pattern this morning, The Golden.

 

Streamer fly from England that's good for Rainbow and Brookie's.

 

Had good luck with it on Bass and Steelhead.

You'll be sending them to Fly Time. I'm just keeping this swap updated till he gets back online (which should be soon). I dont have his address, so just hold on to them for a day or two Threader and I'm sure Fly Time will be checking in on this post soon and supply his mailing address.
