Hey everyone - flies were mailed out today, so hopefully everyone will have them by the weekend (with the exception of jmb).
I appreciate everyone’s participation. We got some good flies in the swap, so hopefully they’ll all be useful in the water, as well as for ideas of tying new flies.
Thanks again everyone - I enjoyed it.
No thank you man! You really took charge of the whole matter. I still want to see how everyone tied thier flies. Thanks guys and have a good one.

You’re more than welcome. I cant wait for the bite to pick up in the spring so I can actually catch a fish on the fly. I got a fly rod/reel for Christmas and purchased a tying kit with some money I received - now I’m just ready to actually put all that money to use.
I got my flies this evening, and they all look GREAT! I can’t wait to get out there and try them out. Fishinfrenzy, you did a great job running the whole deal, and the tags were a really good idea. If anyone wants to know how I tie the glow shrimp, let me know and I will start a thread with step by step pics. I just ordered a macro lens for my camera that should make such a project a little easier.

You can definately nab one on the fly this time of the year!
Got three on the fly a few days ago in a short time all about the same size.
The fish are keying in on small shrimp right now. At time I have seen them sipping on little glass minnnows as well.
CT, I always love your pics! Nice lookin fish bubba!
Hey everyone- terrific- I am pumped yet again at all of them, threw the glow shrimp in the pool- couldn’t wait:sunglasses:.
Nice pic Jeremy! Got my flies yesterday. The all look awesome. I think someone put in a shad fly for me. Thanks all, I look forward to doing it again.

If you’re talking about the one that doesn’t have a tag on it, that is jmb’s “Disco Kwan.”
Got it. After I wrote that I figured it may have been an electric chiken something. Cool.
