Virtual Fly Swap Anyone???
« on: September 09, 2016, 01:09:03 PM »
Guys in an effort to get the forum moving again and earn its members interest back, I’d like to do a Caney Fork themed virtual fly swap.
How it works.

•   Each tier submits an image and recipe of a fly that would be of use on a TN Tailwater (preferably Caney Fork)
•   No commercially tied flies allowed. They can be any pattern or a variation of any pattern, they just have to be tied by you.
•   The entry will be open for three weeks
•   Once all participants are in, there will be two weeks to post your submission on the thread.
•   A poll where all members can vote on whose fly should be the winner will be held  for three weeks
•   The winner of that poll will get all the flies in the contest.

Sound interesting??? If so spread the word and let’s get this one started. This should be pretty fun.

That's three. Damn, I miss the buzz we used to have around here. Has everyone just quit fishing?

great idea,

I am sure thumper or howard could post some of my flies since they used them all the time.  Hey pal….do have one of those flies,  hey pal--hook me up… Come on Pal wrap me a couple of those for the weekend trip.  Come to think of it, kind of like Craig S. fishing with Mike A. back in the day. 

As for this fly swap,,, I am out, but if anyone wants to send me LA flies to fish the end of this month I can do that.

So not as many as the old days but this will do.
What style fly shall we tie?  I've been playing with salmon flies lately. Other than that I think musky flies are pretty hot this month. Suggestions?
