    Default An idea for a swap?

    Hi Guys
    I was sitting around and playing with 3 materials. Then I thought of this. What if we started a fly swap where we choose say 3 to 5 materials and see what flies we can make out of the selected materials, each participant can do what ever he wants with the materials, any tipe of fly for any species. What do you guys think?

    Good idea Johan. I like it.


    Like your signature quote by FOSAF Chairman Ilan too - ne'er a truer word spoken.

    Thanks Jan. As you said never a truer word spoken. I just realise every day that, as Dr. Gerhard Verdoren(sorry if the spelling is wrong) puts it, the only dangerous thing on earth are humans.

    A good idea as long as they are readily available materials, and not exotic stuff like CDC, which costs a fortune.
    How about : a piece of commercial wrapping, peacock herl or dubbing, and a hook?
