I-Hate-To-Tie-This-Fly FLY SWAP

[Darian]

Robin,.... The history of the Matuka is that the style originated in New Zealand for lakes down there. It has been adopted over here for rivers/lakes and is good for Steelhead as well as Trout.... I've even heard of matuka's being used for Black Bass....

Try varied sizes and colors to find out what you'd like to use the matuka for. Happy exploring....

Got my swap flies! Wow, for being difficult-for-the-tyer-to-tie flies, this is one of the finest sets of swap flies ever. Thanks for all the great ties everyone and special thanks to Ben for hosting!

With fishing about to bust open soon everywhere, I don't know if folks are up for another swap but I'm game if everyone else is.

for a group that "hates" to ties these flies, wow! This is a fine looking set. A really nice job by all.

Hubby said the same when I showed him the collection. He'd never seen the Matuka before either...

I, too, am also game for another swap, if anyone is willing to host! True, LMB and stripes are just around the corner, but if the turn around is 6 wks like this one, we shouldn't have any trouble fitting it in?

Thanks again guys!

Seems like a perfect time for a bass swap. Bring on the meat!

Doh! Sounds like fun, but I just signed up to do Scott's shad fly swap. As much as I'd love to do some bass bugs, I don't want to spread myself too thin Maybe next time around...
