so I guess I missed the whole thing.....

nah, I don't think so, I've been needing an excuse to get the vice out. . . .

this time around I'm adding one of these for everyone ( 7 total, right?):



these are bonus flies, I expect none back ( I snoozed, I loozed )

they're big monsters that are meant for the deschutes salmonfly hatch, and I hope to see a few of you throw em in person come late may.

P.S. hope 'steelhead slayers's addy is the same, and 7 is enough for everyone to get one, if not pm me so I can adjust asap, I'm gonna mail em friday morning (tomorrow)

NEGATIVE.... I'm adding these as "extras" if I wanted to be part of the fly swap I should of payed attention, these are a "fly give", I know these fool big redsides into a take, if you'd like to thank me try it out, hook a monster and take a picture.... or better yet, let me watch first hand....
