Midge swap announcement and update(s).
First let me answer a few questions up front :-) : 1) Im not Matt, nor does my name translate or permut into it. 2) Im certainly planning to mail back peoples fair share. 3) The intention is not to get files to go fishing, but toget some patterns that you can keep in your sample boxes for later copying. So with that lets put down the 'rules' and timeline and see if people agree with those. a) limited to ~15 tiers (last time we were only 7 so that should be enough) b) You can either tie 1 pattern with a duplicate fly for each swapper or 2 patterns with just 1 fly for each person (I prefer varity), i.e. at the most you would have to tie 30 flies. c) everything else as usual, i.e. labeled flies, postage paid return packages etc.. (you know the drill). Timeline: March 12: sign up ends April 9: deadline for shipping to me. April 23: last day for me to ship the flies back to participants. April 26-29: Going to Hot Creek ranch to test the patterns. I dont have a web server to make a formal swap page, but will either directly mail the group as the swap progresses as well as posting on ROFF. I can attempt to do some digital macro shoots of the flies if someone wants to post them somewhere. The list of participants so far (any corrections welcome): Bill Mason Bruiser : Colorado pattern. Hans van der Strom Lat705 : Catskill Adams. Paul Williamson Svend Tang-Petersen: Hanging midge & suspended midge. troutbum Wayne P Willi

or 2 patterns with just
1 fly for each person (I prefer varity), i.e. at the most you would have to tie 30 flies. My sanity, or what's left of it, can not last through 30 size 28s so make it an Adams and a Miracle Midge. Lou T

I don't tie or use many midges, so I won't join, but I be pleased to host your macro shots on the swap page I maintain. -- Stan Gula http://gula.org/roffswaps
