Default Klink n dink swap 2

Apologies to SharkeyP but this is a blatant copy of your swap earlier in the year.http://http://www.flyforums.co.uk/fl...dink-swap.htmlHopefully it will be half as good I missed out on this the last time and am going to make rivers my priority this season.Having caught a nice 1/2 lber on this method at the end of September I've been practising tying klinks. Seems a good technique for starting out on rivers too.
Anyway enough babbling, 9 tyers 2 flies each one nymph and a parachute fly capable of holding the nymph up. An extra set for charity, so 20 flies total. I know its a busy time of year so deadline will be flies to me 1st Feb. Can you send flies in a small box( matchbox, camera film container etc) to stop them getting squashed. SAE as well and can you mark your forum name somewhere as well.
Phew think thats everything covered, thanks for looking now get your name down

Most sincere form of flattery, or so they say! Count me in for this one. My Klink and Dink box is pretty full but the rate I lose flies I can never have too many.

I'll try to tie something other than a Copperhead GRHE and an Olive Emerger this time.

Welcome aboard guys
SharkeyP those flies seem to work for you so I dont mind but if you have other killers in mind perfect
Dont be shy lads still room for a few more

Bigtel its just for fun. Swaps really bring your tying on due to the fact you have to tie the same fly over and over

Will the following be OK?

Black klink
and then, in honor of Sharkey, I found a fly in Mike Harding's book - the Ribble Rouser, and this variant seems to trigger interest
