I'll be sending a midge assortment ( black rat, Al's rat, and a thread midge) plus an bonus fly.
They should be in the mail by tomorrow.

I was able to get everthing in the mail today. I put a little extra postage on the return envelope because of some bigger flies some of the guys are tying.
Let me know when you get them and thanks for doing this.

I'll gladly tie an extra, but it would be up to the host as to whether you could join, I'd just drop him a PM...

I have already tied 12, sounds good to me also!

This is my entry:

Hook: Mustad 79580 size 10
Bead: 5/8 black
Weight: .025 lead wire
Tail: Black Marabou
Body: Medium Black Ice Chenille
Collar: Black Schlappen


I like to oversize my collar to make up for not adding a palmered hackle on the smaller buggers. Just my preference, cause I'm a lazy tier at times and really don't think the step is needed at this size.

I'm good with that if everybody else is.

I've decided, I'll be tying up a "bird of prey caddis" and a "bonus" zebra midge.

This is my first swap. Is it standard practice to tie up a few extras for the mods?

 

[quillfly]

so tie 16 right (can't do math now finals)

 

[SNJChef]

Whheff got your flies today.

Great. I only included flies for the original list. If you need more flies, I can put them in the mail to you to cover mods and extra tiers. Sorry I don't have any more bonus flies. They are a pain to make but they do work.
