Subject: [VFB] Late 2017 swap intro

Anyone up for a November or Dec. fly swap? (after the season is over) 

I have an idea for 10 tiers.  Tie an easy fly design that I give- a rope-dub 
bugger pattern, and each swapper ties one color of it 10 times. (I’ll post a 
collage of a wide range of styles)

Each color can be a different size and embellished with flash, eyes, cones- 
whatever, but the bugger basic style must be maintained.  Since there are 
combination of colors, the selection would be infinite.  Natural furs count as 
colors.

This would allow big bass buggers, trout buggers, panfish buggers, even pike 
and saltwater buggers. A chili-pepper would even pass.  But each color or combo 
must be by one tier, so there’s no repeats.

I will post a picture palette of styles and colors to give some food for 
thought, and then we tie one on. Then we get to tying actual flies.  (TUI flies 
are still acceptable)

If this one runs over the number, that’s fine, since variations are endless and 
buggers work for everything.  I have salt-water rope-dub jack-buggers that are 
just killer in Florida bays. (Ask Jerry Goldsmith)  Just a rope-dub (highly 
segmented, tapered) bugger tied with bite tippet with flash green and blue 
materials.

I thought a new twist would be to post your pilot-pattern on VFB for a comment 
session to get thoughts.  Then if a VFBer wants to join or just post their 
comment or even their version (photo), that would make for a real fun swap with 
lots of participation that wouldn’t be time-consuming at all.

Any takers?

DonO

2017-08-31 Thread Jack Harford 
Hi Don,

If there is still room put me down for a redneck bugger in black. One of
your disciples is going to teach me the rope dub technique :D

Tight lines

Re: [Shaw Suspected Junk Email][VFB] Late 2017 swap intro

2017-08-31 Thread Pete Gramp 
By "bugger" you mean that this is a wooly bugger swap, right?  If so, is
there room remaining?  The hardest part will be finding hackle of the right
size... I'm not used to tying much larger than a 12 these days, and my
hackle is mostly saddles with very few "big 'uns" for the wooly buggers.
Time to go to the shop for more hackle!!  As if I needed a reason...
Body would be a metallic green, pseudo-peacock herl... but a shade lighter
in color than the natural stuff, just barely.  Dubbing similar to ice dub,
but sourced from Fly Tyer's Dungeon (no affiliation, just stating the
source for the material).
Let me know if I'm in, please,
-Pete
