I started a new thread for this only because I wanted to try something a little bit different.
In the meantime, here are the flies... It would be really great if each tier would just mention which one he tied and maybe list the materials and the steps in order to tie it along with how to fish it, when you fish the particular fly, and why you chose the this particular fly to tie. Feel free to include any other information too.
Please, the fate of the planet rests on your participation!

[multipage=Iris Caddis #14-16-18 - Tied by Matt Grobert][coverattach=2]
Imitates the emerging hydropsyche caddis so common on all North American streams. Emergence is late afternoon til dusk.

[multipage=Partridge and Orange standard tie - Tied by Broadheadscreek][coverattach=4]
[multipage=Klinkhammer - Tied by Doublehaul] [coverattach=5]
This fly is tied to pin-point browns on the Battenkill. I fish mostly still water there and find less or no flash is best. Usually, I wind up fishing in the crappiest weather so I like to keep things dull. There is no ribbing on this Klinkhammer. I do use Hi tack wax and don't do a lot of casting, so the fly holds together pretty well. The rabbit fibers in the dubbing are also very long and I think it helps to keep things bound together. You can see that the hackle is particularly high on the post. I do this so the entire body is in the film. Plane old whiting brown for the hackle. I will tie this fly down to size 22, as the summer progresses, smaller seems to be better. I don't know if all these details are critical, however, the fly works.
