I don't think Jay tied for this swap, but yeah, you're right.. 10 cent flies.

Actually, you can't really put a price on the hackle, it came with a tying kit, so you know its top notch quality.

Hey, I must have been the big spender at a closer to 50 cents per fly...the tungsten bead was 37 cents all by itself...(most got tungsten...I ran out towards the end so some of you may receive 29 cent flies instead...sorry).

Fisherman J- Has everyone sent you the pattern and material lists so that it can be put up on the swaps section with pics?

Thanks to all and especially flyfishermanj for doing this swap.

Nothing here yet and I only live 30 min. away...just another perfect record for the US Postal Service...

My flies are sitting at the local post office because they say I owe 51 cents lol.

The Walmart Special, a budget-minded Partridge-and-Orange.



Hornberg 88 "Variant." Wet. Dry. Streamer? Whatever. Effective. I usually don't do the flatwing, but I did this time. Because. Just because.


Apparantly you have to goto the actual slide show to get the witty captions for rthe two slideshows.

[gentleshepherd]

Let me work on getting the flies, first.

Apparantly, my handwriting is illegible and it took extra time for our good host to decipher the address.

I tied two flies..

First Fly was the Banksia Bug (green caddis with a UV body over thread and wire with a bead head)

[flyfishermanj]
