I will tie a couple with your directions, in black. Then go fishing this weekend and if they catch fish, then I think my problems have been solved. Thanks for the help Riley

Just had the fly swat swap and meet. Met at a local burger joint sporting 39 cent ice cream scoops. It was a bonus to the flies Thanks so much, you outdid yourself! (as usual!) m

Ms Keeto took this at the ice cream social/fly swap. Pepper to taste flies and make sure they will work.

Aztecattack! Overwhelming - I'm so glad I stuck to it and got my 12 little fish finished. (Not in my nature to do twelve of the same thing.) What an amazing assortment we ended up with. Thanks for all of your extra touches Swapman. Now to see if the fish like them.
And thanks for tech help posting pic M!

I'm long overdue with posting here. Holy crow, Mr. Rabbit - that's a lot of extremely cool flies!
I did my best to get the goat of a certain grayling, but he wasn't having it. On and on with gloating I went, but non-plussed was he.
So now I have all these wonderful flies... everyone was so damm gracious - I still have all the flies you sent. They're fabulous, by the way. How is it you don't fish?
Anyway, thank you thank you. I'm going to share. Honest.

I was beginning to worry about you. I thought perhaps some pathogen had hitched a ride in the package, that I'd knocked you off.
Riley. The callowness of youth! But you tried-- thanks.
You need not share. I only suggested (or I thought I suggested somewhere- I can't find a copy. Did I hand-write something?) that any you don't think you have a use for, handyoudown to 'the family'. But they're all meant for you. I feed plenty enough to Sitka and gang, already. Now, MsKeeto understandably might be feeling a little left out. You can share with her, if you wish. I felt a tad uncomfortable packing so out of balance. But, understand, I wanted to satisfy that query you made elsewhere.
You're as welcome as springtime in Alaska.

Additionally, the final comment on it, complete with smirk from young Grayling, was, "Well, I got the great big, cool one!"

Classic! Almost worth the three hours I put into that fly! But tell him to fish it where there aren't many trees. I'm anxious to know what sort of monster is hungry for it.
But leave my Gramma out of it!
