Does anyone have a problem with cutting this one off at 10 or 12? My (almost) five year old's attention span will be stretched as it is.

Ok guys and gals, Im gonna go ahead and close this one up to new enteries, so each one of you need to tie up 9 flies, any fly that you choose, and any size. the due date will be March 5. Make sure you dont forget your SASE, and Ill post my addy in a couple of days, the first package that arrives to me will recieve an additional 5 flies, and if I get 2 in the same day both will get flies. I look forward to seeing your flies, and I will post pics as they arrive. I want to thank all of you for joining this swap, and if you need any help or have any questions please ask me and Ill help you out. The sooner I recieve the packages the sooner you get your flies back. Have fun and start tying :yahoo:

Hello this is Kaylidh. I dont think im better than my dad well thank u again well that is it for now. OH yea i am tieing a wolly buger buh bye

Sloane will be tying a Barbie Bug. It is basically a hot pink version of the Green Weenie. Here in the Smokies both patterns work REALLY well in the summer. They are excellent on bluegills as well.

 

Micah has 6 of her Green Weenies tied already. She is really getting the hang of it. She is even doing pretty well with the whip finisher. I'm sure she will help Sloane with hers as well.

 

Thanks again for hosting!

I feel your pain, Megan - every time I need to use the Thompson whip finisher, i have to pop open a video on my pc... just cannot get the hang of it. Oh well, won't be the first time a girl has shown me up.

:hyst: It took me 2 years to learn how to whipfinish, so I know how ya feel!!! there is a tutorial in the beginners colum that does an excellente job in showing how to use the whipfinish tool.
