All joking aside, I have 1 more fly to finish up for Rick's "woven" fly swap, so hopefully they'll be in tomorrow's mail... or saturday's, being realistic with the work schedule... SOooo... in light of the current tying room becoming the nursery (and my desire to put off the inevitable as long as possible - due date is April 4th, so I should start April 3rd, right?) I think I can tie up a dozen or so flies for this swap. Being honest, it likely won't be anything fancy... but it'll fall under the swap theme and will be far more technical than a San Juan worm... I'm not certain what I'll tie, but I'm thinking it will be a foam-based terrestrial from a new book I was recently gifted (Tying flies with Foam, Fur, and Feathers)... I've been hankerin' to tie a nifty beetle pattern in there... Long story longer, COUNT ME IN CHUCK. Thanks in advance, Pete Gramp pete dot gramp at gmail dot com
