Hey JT, why don't you tie up some of those wire-body rubber legs flies. I just lost my last one. smile.gif

Count me in. I'll tie up some #14 micro-mays.


The Steelheader's JT Special?  I would tie some if I had any time.  I don't even have time to fish anymore.

Normally people tye one per person, but if you want to tye 2 go ahead. Thats what I was planning on doing, but its up to the tier.

So to get this right ...1 or 2 flies (13 or 26 total) for everyone in on the swap and the extra set goes to P.C.T.??

Well, most of the fly swaps that i've participated in only have one set of flies that go to the other tiers. However, if you guys would like to tye an extra set and donate to PCT, go ahead. Its up to you. I'm guessing most will want to just tye one set, but if everyone wants to do 2 then we can donate a set to PCT.

I think the PCT should be separate; most of these flies won't necessarily be Putah flies. It will give us a good excuse to arrange another fly swap!

Sorry I was just thinking that if there are 13 of us and each tier ties 13 flies, they won't need one of their own flies. So instead of getting a one of your own flies back the "extra"set could be donated to PCT to be sold for fundraising?? Although it does sound a bit like a math problem right nowconfuse Anyway not sure if I got this right but i am tying my Z-Wings as we speak.

Cheers

Sounds good, so if everyone ties 13, we can donate an extra set to PCT, for an auction or whatever they choose.

I hate to quickly solve the case of the missing fly, but it was sitting in my vice when I snapped this shot.

You sleuths put the Hardy Boys to shame. smile.gif

I've been tying up a storm... a lot of patterns that came out well, but I have too many of. Can I throw these in for the PCT auction set? Say a few Adams, Catskill-style?

Yup, me too. Maybe we should could swap on the cleanup day? We could also throw together the PCT auction set, put it in a box, and auction it there.
