I guess I should add my two cents worth here as this is the first swap I have entered. I must say that I have been tying flies since the middle 40s. Does that make me a good tyer? No...just an old tyer. When I saw the foam swap come up I thought of the fly that I had put together and found to be successful catching larger sized bluegills. Not that it is very hard to tie but it catches fish. Even the occassional bass. Soooooo I thought the members of this list would like a copy of my bluegill fly. I even had trouble coming up with a name for it. I thought that since it was so easy to tie I would send along another fly like the Lady Bug that I found will take an occassional bluegill. I talked with my good friend Allan Fish and he thought that would be a good idea. So, if you are looking for award winning flies from me forget it. About the only thing you can say for my flies is that they seem to catch flies but won't end up in the fly shops. Perhaps this will be my first and last swap.
