Quoting DonO <[email protected]>:
> 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?
