Shad fly swap

[nrvi]

I am almost done...ran out of the right style hook...should be in the mail this weekend.

Well, I've tied up about 30 different prototypes that I'm just not liking. Although, I've now stocked up with more weird materials than I've ever had before. Anybody need fluorescent stretch lace??? I think I may have finally come to grips with something I can live with, so it'll be a couple more days before they're done.

The nice thing is, and I was reminded of this yesterday, "Don't overthink a shad fly."

I have yet to find any shad, so it looks like by the time I have all the flies we should be right in the beginning of what will hopefully be a great year for shad.

I received nrvi's flies today, a differnt take on the wet pinky style of shad fly. Should work very good, can not wait to find out.

Scott,

Flies are outta here and heading upstream to you...

Shad are here, Guppy caught the first one last night that I know of. I received some sweet green shad flies today from jburge. Looks like I timed this fly swap good. Once I get all the flies I will take a photo of each one and post a pic, then off to the post office I go.

Thanks for the extras John, I am real tempted to use one of them today after work on my little bluegill pond before I go to school.

My flies are done, they are real sparkly. Look more like pink jewelry for a teenage girl, but I think the shad will like it as well.

Got some wet pinkies in the mail from Hairstacker today, a classic that has proven itself time and time again.

Only 5 more sets to come it.

I received jholmesjr flies last night, and these are almost the same fly as what I caught my hen on the other night. So these are keepers for sure.

Hey guys,

Got my flies off to Scott on Saturday. Sorry about being late...
