I'm in but don't want to host the first one again. If we get things rolling I'll certainly take my turn as host.

Re: Last fly swap was....
I won't host it, but I have an idea, your most productive flies....I would tie an iris caddis, a pheasant tail soft hackle, a serendipity, a gold ribbed hares ear, a catskill style sulphur, and a bead heads bird's nest...... Originally Posted by Thursthouse

I will host it. I would like to go with your theme . Originally Posted by lightenup
I also have a secondary condition:
Each person will double the amount of flies tied.
Example: 12 persons in the swap each member will make 22 flies.
The other 11 flies from each person will be donated to Project Healing Waters.

Re: Last fly swap was....
Anyone that does not wish to participate. Any Fly donations to add to the Healing waters portion would be great . The donation is going to be given in the name of North East Fly Fishing Forum.
