Foam Fly Swap

Recommended Posts

Please let me know if you did not receive a PM with the addy.

 

I should have sent it to everyone that did not already have it.

 

Thanks

My idea of making Dennys with a gorilla glue head has not worked out well. The heads I have made are not able to float the hook, and they sink like they were weighted. If no one objects, I would like to change my pattern to a foam beetle. I will experiment with the Dennys later, might be able to figure out how to make them work.

I'm going to try to get them in the mail tomorrow. Please keep any extras - thanks for hosting.

Flies are done and will be in the mail tomorrow via priority mail. I didn't do the beadhead as it just didn't work that well for me. I made some size 16 dry flies that have foam on the top. Can't wait to see the rest of the flies.
