    Lets Have a little fun..  😀

    This is a Big Brown Marathon for Oct.. LOL

    I know its a little late to do a swap. But this is going to be a quick swap..  If you sign-up keep in mind the flies will be due the weekend of Oct 4 … (I will send them out on oct 6.) So we have them for the weekend..  
    This means you will need to have them in the mail by…Oct 1st

    Heres the swap…

    Your favorite Big Brown fly!!  >>>> day or night patterns<<<<
    Lets try to get 8-10 swappers..

    ******** ALL SWAP RULES APPLY*********

    Here is a kicker..
    everyone wil tye for the “X” number of swappers and add 1 fly for the box

    *********Rules..
    1. the fly must be in the fishes mouth when the picture is taken.
    2. the fish must look wet… (water dripping off the fish, fish in the water, ect.).
    3. Try to tape the fish a quickly as possible ” with out harm”
    4. the fish with the biggest weight
    5. the formula LxGxG / 800 = weight (will be use to size the fish)

    With in 30 days of recieving your flies the one with the biggest wins..
    Final day to post your pictures will be Nov 15.

    The Box..
    All the left over flies will go in a fly box (This is just a regular fly box nothing fanasy!!)  I will throw in 4 extra patterns that I have caught browns on over 5lbs.

    Let the fun begin!!!

    We need some more people on this swap ASAP! I’m tying up some olive-eyed blaster streamers.

    #56554

    are you going with just us three or going to wait a while and see if we have enough to make it worthwhile ?

    I’m in no hurry, streamer season is long for me 😉

    #56555

    Well I want to close the swap today..

    The main purpose of the swap was to do it quick and get it done… Not to DRAG it out over a couple of months time..

    I dropped my flies off in the mail on the way back from the big city, (hospital better part of the last two days) when I left it was 2 each of two flies with a bonus fly thrown in. That is what I put in the mail, treat my package as you wish.

    I’m fine, so well I expect to fish the better part of most days next week, go on the 4th and pick up our new Boykin pup and take Spey casting lessons on the 5th.
