Anyone up for a fly swap? We would probably need about 6-12 people. Let's do a sand eel or clouser swap, since they are relatively easy and cheap to tie up. I'll start w/ my favorite early season fly, the sand eel clouser. Last year I took fluke, bluefish, porgies, keeper bass, shad, sun dials and sea robins (don't count)all in one afternoon on that fly! I'd be willing to handle the distribution. So who's in?

Sounds like a great idea Capt., i dont currently have an available pic of a clouser, but i think it's a good choice to start out a swap maybe everyone ties 3

COUNT ME IN...
now we need 5-11 more

Please caulk my coffin so it floats,
Then moor it with the fishing boats.

Take pains to see it doesn't leak
As it rides the tides my favorite Creek.

I know I'll be contented there
With the sun and sand and salty air.

Put fishing gear inside with me -
What follows death is mystery.

The Lord may let me fish some night,
When the bunker bass begin to bite,

And some small short that I've released
I'll catch full-grown when I'm deceased.

Nice

craig, so what are you tyin? We'll give it a few days and then tally up the participants. So far we have:
1. Me: sandeel ultrahair clouser with a twist
2. Sand flee with a sand eel polar fibre clouser
3. craig with _____

Anyone else like to join? This is a good way to get some new patterns you may have never seen before!

First I have to get my

stuff from the attic. I used to tie alot then we had a baby you probably know the rest of that story. Once I get the cobb webs out I will probably tie some baby bunker patterns maybe a clouser or two if I can remember how. You guys sound like you are miles ahead of me but I would love to start tieing again and this gives me a good reason to get the vice out.
