Folks my most sincere apologies but I am not going to be able to complete
this swap. Its a first as far as I am concerned but I just cannot get the
time to tie at the moment.
Please accept my apologies. I will tie some up for Jimmy and send them on
to him direct but right now the swap as far as
No need for apologies, Keith. I had to drop out of a couple of swaps
two years ago. I understand time pressures.
Even for retardees...erretirees like me.

How well do caterpillar flies work? Are the soft worm-like ones the best,
or the fuzzy ones?
I don't see too many caterpillars for sale in shops.

A rope-dubbed hackle, maybe on GSP or mono (not that you need them over any
other type of thread, but I just prefer to use the stronger things... call
me paranoid...) is a great caterpillar fly. I can't speak for what size
works for trout and bass, but the crappie and sunnies/panfish go for
Pete, Great to hear from you. Just wanted to let you know that Dr. Tom’s
surgery for TN was 100% successful.
Not a single gun-shot to the face since he fixed it- 3 years now.
I was thinking too of a rope-dub #22 midge chartreuse saddle-hackle on a mono
core, compressed 100% before wrapping.
Yes. Some are no longer than my thumb nail. Tiny things. Others are
slightly wider and twice as long. All are the same color, which I suppose
comes from the chlorophyll found in the tender fresh leaves . Charlie Meck
likes to tie in three different lengths to cover them all I guess. I can
attest
Isn't that a Wooly Worm

How well do caterpillar
Don,
Out here in the mid-Atlantic states this fly is very much a match the hatch
kind of thing. It is the earliest terrestrial to come out each year. I have
my best luck using this fly unweighted and greased with floatant on a fine
tippet. They tend to lower themselves right into the water and
Not sure about the green weenie imitating a caterpillar . Usually they're tied
either with lead wrapped around the shank or a black beadhead and meant to
imitate the green rock worm or similar caddis larvae. The green inch worm is
usally tied with a piece of foam. The small foam cylinders
I would think a wooly worm evolved into a wooly bugger with the addition of
a marabou tail,
but the wooly worms they sold here were fat and short, like half a
caterpillar. They worked in
shallow lakes fished around the shores on the bottom. Who knows what the
fish took them for.
Thanks for letting me know. Rick

Don't feel bad. As much as I wanted to be in this swap I also had to drop out.
I can do some things now but I am still not up to tying 20 flies.
