    Haven't done one for years, so count me in. Let's make it max 10 though please, as I don't fancy making a larger batch! :>

    Post flies along with a return stamped addressed envelope?

      Yep 10 people maximum, everyone posts their flies to me with a stamped return envelope (make sure there is enough postage on it!!) I'll put them all together and ship them out. Easy.

      Come on then, plenty of good tiers on here...

        I love the smell of fly swaps in the morning. Makes me think of victory. (Who writes this rubbish for me??????? ::/). I am of course in. Please send me the address to post them to and I will lash a few curious looking creations together.

            I'd suggest it has to be a sea trout pattern (as this is a sea trout forum), apart from that whatever you like!

                Why not boys i'm in. How about a home brew pattern that we use and like and has caught us fish (sea trout of course) but you can't find in a tackle shop? {;

                  Sounds good! I'm sure we can all dig out an old favourite with no name!

                    Sounds good guys. Can I also go with Cullster's choice of a jungle cock cape?! :>

                    Will probably do Daioni's from my side and hope they bring you luck.

                    What date shall we pin on this guys? Give is a week today to see how many more join up to the swap (anyone can join the swap, so please do get involved)? Then set a date accordingly?

                    Thanks for putting this together T7.

                          Thanks Squirrelblue, you're added to the list.

                          Not tying a squirrel-blue then?

                            I could tie up my variant of the squirrel blue, but you would all have to join the secret squirrel society and keep it in a locked cupboard when not in use:>

                            it is a very exclusive society, so exclusive in fact Im the only one in it~:.

                            look forward to seeing all the ties
