Please read the ‘rules’ and I’ll post a pallet of bugger-styles, numbered.

Rules for Rope-dub bugger swap: (not really rules, just guidelines)
Swap is for 12 tiers.
Tie an easy fly design that I give- a rope-dub bugger pattern, and each swapper
ties one color of it
I didn’t post it yet. Don’t worry, won’t be difficult or restricting.
TUI – Tying Under the Influence. Remember that swap? I don’t, and I was in
it. And maybe I even meistered it. Can’t wamember.

- row 1 fly 1. That
would be a great steel-head fly in bright colors.
I might do a few versions of that one for my swap-fly.

Mike and others,
If you find one you like and can’t figure out the materials from enlarging
the photo, tell me which fly you are looking at and I will

I thought you got the Rope-dub DVD way back when.

Hi Don
I could use a little more insight into the rope dub technique too
FRIENDS,
Well the move is finally over and we’re settling in. Getting the house set up
will take weeks at least.
You can start sending in the rope-dub buggers and I will start dividing them up
and posting progress photos.

Nice looking flies, Jack. ;o) Ready to do one in 14/0 size?
No rush in getting them to me, only have one set so far.
Cheers,

Hi Don,
I'm late, however this was
sprinkle on top). Or cheat and
take the de-heated capsules (health-food store). Capsicum is a natural
antiviral.
If you can’t tie them, that’s OK. I’ll replace yours with rope-dub grub-bug
samples. Will be a full swap.
