That fly was developed to fish the deep cuts coming off the flats in fast movng water. Guarantee a redfish or two. Thanks for the nice comments. Jack Jimmy D.

I've already started sorting the flies into 24 sets. Believe it or not, today is the first time I've actually set down and looked at your flies. Kinda been saving them for when I needed something to bolster my spirits. After watering all the plants in the greeenhouse and putting out 100 pounds of weed & feed pre-emergent fertilizer on our St. Augustine lawn, I needed an attitude adjustment. Your flies did the trick. This was my 16th Swap to meister and let me tell you, I was very pleased with the quality and creativity of your flies. You'll be getting flies from tiny size 24 or is it 28 or 32 trout flies, all the way through panfish, crappie, bass, larger trout and steelhead flies. Something for everybody! All the flies were great, but one stood out from the rest in its ingenuity. I've never singled out a tyer before, but Jack Lehman's Goldust Spoon is something to see. I'm sure it took an inordinate amout of time to "build" just one fly, let alone 24. Notice that I said, "build" cause Jack definitely didn't tie that fly. I can't wait to try it on the bass, panfish and crappie in Lake Waco. BTW, this is the smoothest running swap I've ever meistered, at least from my end. My hat is off to each of you for "Taking Care of Business." TIGHT LINES !
