one of my go to flies of choice in the lake I fish is a black leech pattern. It is very effective with a sinking fly line and a semi fast retrieve. I am a rookie fly tier but this fly works great for me…

Thanks for letting me participate. I’m a beginner and my two favorite fly’s to fish are the elk hair caddis with a zebra midge dropper. My caddis still needs alot of work so I’m going with the midge. Because they’re small (and I need the practice) I’m sending two - 1 each red & black.
The flies sound awesome I been having a great winter season with zebra midges & zebra variables. Just remember to tie 11 of each fly so I can distributed 1 fly to each member of the swap.
I have seven sets of flies tied up for another swap that doesn’t seem to be getting off the ground, so I will tie up four more sets for this swap.
The sets are my version of the Sex Dungeon in brown, a Patriot Chironomid and a #30 or #32 Midge.
Were almost there guys just waiting on receiving a few more participants flies. I do got to say the flies I have received look awesome [;)] Cant wait to try them out.
Also once all flies are received Ill take pics and post them on the board please PM me if you do not want your flies posted on the board.
Oh any chance you guys used a tracking number with the flies you sent ? Not a big deal I guess thell get here then they get here just ancy to get them back to you and start fishing them [;)][;)][;)]
