Fly Tying

holy Zonkers Batman!!!

Mine will be shipping out on Monday. I under estimated how much hair is needed to do a solid color on 12 flies so there is 6 Brown and 6 Grey mice. This was also my first attempt at incorporating weedless into a fly, so I hope it works well. I got a bunch of blank stares at the P.O. when I asked about IRC so I will probably just use paypal if that is ok?

PayPal is fine and i think the easiest way for international swappers to participate in swaps. i don't know which is more convenient; the instant payment, or the currency converter.

Art,

Mine will be in the mail in the morning sorry for cutting it so close but I threw my back out and I am now just able to sit at the tying bench for an extended period. I send you a PM about return postage. Holler back at me. Thanks for hosting the swap and I hope my flies don't suck to bad!

I've done some "Conehead double bunny shama llama ding dings" but never the ding dongs. Look forward to see the difference between a ding ding and a ding dong.

Surprised. Shocked. Saddend. Maybe the whole range of emotions?

 

They really turned into a fly of desperation. Little too much to tie on the road. My fault for procrastinating, I should have tied them before my trip, at home in comfort. I tied these at the hotel sink counter because that was the only edge that my vise would clamp to.

 

I am a huge fan of the Dolly Llama. Maybe next time.

Dave, when you post pics of your fish do the fresh water born and bred a favor and tell us what they are. That is very basslike in shape and should give a couple of beautiful fillets.
