OK guys, we have some new folks who seem to br tyers in our midst. I'm thinking about a streamer swap, but it can be for whatever you choose. You might already know the rules and we'll have 13 tiers with 14 entries the extras are sold to an non-participant for the benefit of our site to help off-set costs. If you've never participate in one of our swaps the rules are simple. There is a start and end date with 1 month to tie the flies and mail them in to the swapmaster-me. I need toe tags with your name and the flies name if you desire. send in with a self-addressed envelope with return postage afixed or money to pay for postage. Once I recieve all the flies submitted, I will sort and mail them back to you. Photos posted on the forum with catches after the fact are always appreciated. Toothy bugs is out all flies have arrived. We'll put up extras to benefit the site. Start date 11-25-13 end date 12-27-13 all flies should be tagged and in the mail. 1) keebranch- done2)Abramh flies arrived3)Gilatrout done4)aggieoutlaw flies arrived5) ThomasR Arrived6) addicted to vise flies are in 7) wheeze burnt - arrived bob9- flies arrived9)mike barker - arrived10) dave flies arrived11)jkurtz7 flies arrived12) bear flies are in13) toothy bugs That makes thirteen if evryones ok with one extra we'll close it out. Everyone needs to tie at least thirteen with the extra going to the site. Any questions? Les

Yes, you can count me in  Beware, i live in Belgium though; but shipping has dropped considerably lately; so it should be OK. I might be able to digg some dollars out at home; so i hope that can sort out the cost of shipment. I'll probably be making some form of EP minnow in size 8; and if those turn out to large; i'll tie my shad attractors in 10 or 12. Thomas

Carter, Think back, what is for most successful streamer you've used. If you never tied it, there's probably a video...

I don't use a lot of streamers. Usually dries and nymphs, for trout…use those for warm water to, but also mix in poppers. I'm completely open to tying something that works well for others, even if I've never tried or tied it. Always looking for something new, be tough* for a popular pattern to not already have the ingredients for the recipe in my pantry. *in ULFF especially.

If there's still room, I'd take part. Thinking of light spruce flies in size 12.
