one of my go to flies of choice in the lake I fish is a black leech pattern. It is very effective with a sinking fly line and a semi fast retrieve. I am a rookie fly tier but this fly works great for me...

Thanks for letting me participate. I'm a beginner and my two favorite fly's to fish are the elk hair caddis with a zebra midge dropper. My caddis still needs alot of work so I'm going with the midge. Because they're small (and I need the practice) I'm sending two - 1 each red & black.

The flies sound awesome I been having a great winter season with zebra midges & zebra variables. Just remember to tie 11 of each fly so I can distributed 1 fly to each member of the swap.

I have seven sets of flies tied up for another swap that doesn't seem to be getting off the ground, so I will tie up four more sets for this swap.
The sets are my version of the Sex Dungeon in brown, a Patriot Chironomid and a #30 or #32 Midge.

Got it. I should have said, 1 each red and black per person. That's what I was thinking it just didn't come out right.
