OK, I'll sign up for a booger swap.

Danl

No, no, it's a bugger swap

I'm a takin' the plunge into the rarified world of ye old swapmeister.
(when I first wrote "swapmeister" it came out "swampmeister" --
probably had it right the first time.)

Peter,

Count me in. I'll offer up a Pheasant Hornberg streamer.

Joe Cornwall


Now we're getting fancy -- I like that!

Really 4/0 hooks?

Salt Water stuff? I think I'll pass on this one as it's been a while.

I'd like to be in with a #10 Seal Bugger (using substitute) ala Denny
Rickards.

Kewl, haven't seen one of them before either . . .

Peter
I thought you said size 4/0 6X hooks and 3/0 thread. If we can go smaller I
will tie the Lit'l Joe on a size 8 3x hook. It uses squirrel tail for the wing
and the Texas squirrels don't have tails with long enough fibers for the size
4/0 6x hooks. I know that Wayne will enjoy all the trout he catches on these in
Virginia.

Ya, Pike flies.

But you can use smaller if you're not up to tying real macho flies.

OK, so here's the RULES:

This is a joke, ladies and gentlemen. Tie the size you like.

In that case I'm in. I have to go through my animal parts boxes to see what
I'll tie. I was thinking a Royal Coachman streamer but I don't know if I
have enough squirrel tail. I might do a variant with woodchuck tail.
