I'll play; the soft hackle is in the top four trout flies where I fish. I'll tie either a 16 or 18 sulphur soft hackle.

 

Thanks for the invite.

PS; what is the timing on this swap? Still arrival before Sept.10?

[BigDaddyHub 0]

You certainly can be 13! FF13 says good things about your work! Still aiming for Sept 10...not set in stone at this point...we can move it up or move it back...I'll sway with the consensus of the swappers.

This is gonna be a very fun swap...a LOT of talent on that list folks!!

[Bulldog5485 0]

I just cant take it anymore I m in, This is gonna be interesting I've never tyed these bab boys before might go with a patridge and chartruse or patridge and orange depends on how much dubbing i got left lol size 10

[BigDaddyHub 0]

Good Deal, Kevin!! That makes us 16! When I started this swap I figured I would have a rough time getting just 6 or 8 guys! I truly appreciate the enthusiasm!! Can't wait to see all these flies!

 

 

Is there anyone who has an issue with the Due Date of Sept 10? I am completely open to moving it up or pushing it back....I know we have several tiers in several swaps and I don't want someone dropping out because they feel rushed to finish this one...Give me some feedback!

 

Think I'm going to tie a Purple and Pheasant with a V rib body...have tied a few for Jamie and the host of the last swap I was in...really like...don't know if it will catch fish, but it's PURTY!
