Subject: [PERPS] Perp Pattern Recipes and Directions

Afternoon Again Perps-

Now I'm back to ask for recipes for the flies you sent or are about to send. I'm trying to get them all in one file in one format. If you already sent me a printed one and you have saved it, could you please re-send it to me at mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the words Perp Recipe in the subject line?

PLEASE! Send me your recipes seperate from your address info. I know it's more hassle, but will let me keep and sort info easier.

If you can, please use the following format, which seems to be more or less standard in books and magazines:

Name of Fly:

Name of Tyer:                              Tyer List #

Hook:

Thread:

Tag:

Tail:

Butt:

Ribbing:

BodyHackle:

Body:

Wing:

Wingcase:

Thorax:

Throat:

Collar Hackle:

Head:

In other words, the materials more or less in orders as they're presented to the hook. Of course, not every fly's going to have all the parts I listed and some may have parts I've left out. In order to save space, I think just the materials list should do the trick, since everyone in the swap is a tyer, having a fly in hand should give a pretty good handle on how the fly is tied. If a fly is particularly complicated or has some unusual techniques involved, then please feel free to include that information. Otherwise, if someone wants specific intstructions they can contact the person who tied it.

Hope this meets with everyone's approval. Email me off list if you have any questions. I do already have recipes from some of you, right now I'm at work and don't have the tyer's names in front of me. If you already sent them and don't feel like sending them again, I'll get them on the website as soon as I can. Unfortunately, I don't have a scanner so I'll have to hand enter them. If you don't mind resending, then I can just copy & paste. Eventually all the recipes, maybe even with pix!, will be on the swap website. If you can send pix along with your recipe that would be even better.

Thanks to all for your patience and help. Merry Christmas to you and yours.
