flies of another pattern for distribution.

5. Label each fly with the name of the fly and the name of the tier.
Include a stamped Self addressed Envelope.

Can you tie them with material that suggests they have sperm on them?
I will allow it (just a glue egg pattern), but I would strongly suggest
you make a pattern with the sperm (can someone give details on this?
What the pattern is called, what material you use to simulate the sperm?)

Please post what fly you are going to tie to

A few wraps of marabou in front of the glue egg could suggest milt. A few
turns of a white hackles could also work.

Try these for a few ideas:
