Just a nice combination of materials and if he throws a curve at us I have a dozen nice flies ready for some other swap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We get a big hatche of zebras Caddis right here by my house in late June and those wets will be perfect. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 25, 2016 I need everyone who was in Round 2 who wants to be in Round 3 to post here ASAP. You have first choice at being in on round 3 before I open it up to the general public. Let me know if you want in. BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fishingbobnelson 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2016 Do the flies have to come from the panel you have a link to; or can any classic style wet fly do? I'm in, I'd just like to know all the rules. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EastTNoutdoorsman 0 Report post Posted March 26, 2016 I'm back in as well. And as Fishingbob has asked, are any patterns with a classic style wing acceptable? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris_NH 0 Report post Posted March 28, 2016 I'm rethinking my choice of the Alder in this round due to the turkey wing... So much more difficult than duck to work with. Flimsier and very difficult to get to match up and stay matched up. Any tips before I bail on this one? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 29, 2016 OK, Guys, I'm about ready to post a new thread for Skill Builder Trout Round 3. Here is the final call on the rules & requirements. It has to be a classic wet fly with wings. It can come from the link that Vicrider and I have both already posted elsewhere, or another fly that is like the ones on that page that meet the other requirements. It has to be a trout fly pattern so that pretty well sets the size of your fly. It has to be in the classic style of a wet fly, and it has to have wings. That way we will all be tying basically the same pattern, just with different materials and different colors. So far, the guys that I know want in are: Vicrider Chris_NH Fishingbobnelson EastTNoutdoorsman Wetsock And, of course, I'm in. We will limit the swap to 13 tyers and you will need to tie 12 flies. I've sent a PM to DavidR, PJ2, Riff & Kennebec12 to see if they want in. Pica and Josephsylvia will not be in on round 3 and Armyflyguy didn't finish the swap so that will leave us needing at least 3 new swappers, if all the guys who are getting PM's decide to stay. We will set the due date at somewhere about May 15, depending on how long it takes to get a full roster. So have fun tying up some Classic Wet Flies. This should test all of our tying skills at some point. So, who's in with a Paramachene Belle? BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
breambuster 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2016 Ok. Riff is going to stay with us, and DavidR is dropping out to have more time to fish. I haven't heard from Kennebec12 or PJ2 yet. Take care BB Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
