Hey, take it easy, I'm the moderator... only I can yell...  LOL. Put me down for something tied w/foam. You already jumped the Chernobyls so I won't do those, but I've got some cool foam patterns that I've developed and some other standards that I could contribute. Depending on the number of guys, put me down for 2 of something. I want to stay away from the ants and stuff, their too boring and easy to tie. Andy also let me ask this; I've got a pattern that isn't a terrestrial but its a very unique foam popper that can also be converted to a slider. Do you want me to do one terrestrial and one of these? I'd like to get this pattern to you guys for some field testing. The feedback that it's gotten from Tim Holschlag (a big Smallie guy here in the Midwest) as well as a guy from Umpqua said its a great fly, but isn't being mass produced, yet... Please let me know if its O.K. to do this. |

Please let me know if its O.K. to do this. Absolutely. We'd be glad to test it on some small mouth water here. I'll take it straight to the Housy... And if you'd like to do your variation of chernobyl's feel free. I was doing another variation... that I've been practicing. |

Ummm. hate to break this one apart, but lack of participation led to a failure of completion of this event.
If we can organize another now that tying season is upon us. I'd love to do it and make a LONNGGGG Deadline for flies due.
