Hi Tony, nice to hear from you. I figured you were busy with health issues and
silent because you didn’t need another swap to stress you out. So sorry about
that. Thanks for the info and for being around for us. Sure hope you’ve gotten
ahead of this new problem in time. Will keep you in my prayers.
I can maybe send you a group of extra PSQN flies if that would work for you.
I’ll bet the guys won’t have a problem tying one more for you.
Eh Guys, 19 instead of 18? One for the Tiger?

Been following this. Wish I was able to do it. Right now I am too tied up with
doctors.
Have therapists and nurses that are here every day of the week for therapy and
to bandage wounds that have now appeared on my other foot. That is the same as
started on my left foot that lead to amputation.

Welcome all to the fly swap and thank you.
I will do my best on my batch and hopefully I can tie something worthy to toss
at fish.
Hope to create & post a fly plate photo when done.
Cheers,
Don

Not too late Donna- you’re spot #18. ;o)
See list below.
Since VFB traffic is not an issue nowadays, do y’all want to keep swap
correspondence on list, or take it off. All posts for the swap will have the
subject line PSQN SWAP.
So we have 18 flies due by Feb. 28th. Does that work? Can submit extras or
design efforts for charitable donations.
Rest of details to follow shortly.

I found an interesting fly on the internet that would be a good candidate
for a swap. It’s called a Pink Squirrel Nymph. Many of you are aware of it and
have probably fished it.
If you have fished it, a story can be added. Even crawfish like this
pattern!
Ye Rooles: (for IOFFers)
1. Role call for who’s still here- swapping or not.
2. List of those interested in swapping this easy and much-liked pattern.
3. Lots of photos on a search of images
4. Broad range of quarry fish
5. Very east tie, easily adaptable to rope-dubbing if you choose
6. Size 16 – 8 all one size or varied, style hook can vary- wet, nymph, or
scud hooks
7. Gray or mottled brown body (your choice of dubbing), pink collar (any
material suited for a collar per the photo archives)
8. Gold or silver bead, your choice of ribbing wire or roped segments
9. Any customization in keeping with the basic pattern (dubbing blends)
10 Number of swappers to dictate size of swap- SHOOTING FOR 18.
11. Standard swap rules apply: toe tags, return SASE (some sort of pkg.)
or Cash for return of flies. Recipes not needed unless you did something
special. (Story?)
Any extra flies will be donated to good charity.
Will post a photo of all designs. Google images should pick it up.
All comments welcome. Easy tie, great fly (famous even), lots of variations
with a common theme.
I am still in stroke recovery, but able to do more all the time- just need
to keep my energy up.
Any VFB swappers left (2)? Looking like we’ll have a good-ol’ days VFB
Swap.
Will give it a couple of weeks for distance lurkers to check in.
Cheers,
DonO
