But a good reminder to get on with the swap I'm part of!

I'm curious to see the result of this swap too.

Default Fly Swap Completed

Have everyone's flies! They've been put into seperate envelopes, and will be mailed off this afternoon! Thanks everyone! Patterns look great.

Here are the pictures


MattPreats; Doc Spratley


JohnK's; Rainbow Over Reno, Variation of the Ruby Eyed Leech


Kingfishers; Original Ridgeback


Pikergolfs; Chironomid


Off in the Bushes; Back Swimmer


Uplanders; Emerger


AdamJs; Balanced Leech


DaceJuniors; Caddis Pupae


Icefevers; Diawl Bach


Fishhunter7s; Caddis pupae


Daceminnows; Mountain Chironomid


Bhflyfishers(my own); Micro Scud

Just so everyone knows, i had diplomas over the past couple of weeks, i omitted the epoxy back on my scuds. They fish just as well without the fancy epoxy work that is time consuming.

Great looking bunch of flies guys! Everything went smoothly, even managed to get them before the due date. I'd be glad to host another swap in the future... Word has it, there will be a chironomid swap pretty quick.. keep your eye out for it, im sure it will fill up fast.

Awesome! Nice fish Dace. Glad it held up for multiples...you never now with marabou...although at times, the more beat up they are, the more fish they fool!
