Inconnu 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2006 Something else I should tell you folks before you get too worried about it. We are not looking for works of art here. This is sort of guerilla flytying, you just need functionality, not appearances. I know I have had participants get all uptight because they can't make a perfect fly, so now you know you don't have to go there. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairstacker 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2006 I like the maroon color of that chair. I just know I'll be able to incorporate that into my fly's design. . . . -- Mike Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gill buster 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2006 this seems like it would be good practice for survival fly tying when your plane crashes in the middle of nowhere Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Inconnu 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2006 Actually gillbuster, that was a scenerio for one of my earlier swaps. I kept it pretty basic with cloth bandages and shirt pockets as well as a hook made from a safety pin. Good call on your part though.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Inconnu 0 Report post Posted October 23, 2006 Yaaaawwwwn! I just finished packing all of the envelopes tonight. I'll have them in the mail first thing in the morning. I know some of you are going to go "Huh??!!" when you get your packages. Some are probably harder than others and perhaps some are more interesting than others, but they all require some thought. Don't dismay if you can't come up with something right away, give it a few days, ponder it a bit as you tie or read this website and I'm pretty sure ideas will come to you. I took a picture of most of the stuff, but the lei wasn't in the picture, sorry about that. I always second guess myself and think I could have done a better job of selecting stuff, but I let the chips fall where they may. My mailing address is: Kerry Pitt 3010 49St Beaumont, AB T4X-1S6 Canada I will PM everyone with some info on the fishi where I feel it is neccessary.

flyfishingwright 0 Report post Posted October 24, 2006 I would, but I'm too scared to open my mailbox. In actuality I am very excited for this swap. I'll let you know when it arrives. Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
