I posted this earlier.

I will be having a fly swap where each person will tie a fly and also submit there favorite trout recipe. A fly / recipe swap. I will have 10 - 15 participants. For the fly I was thinking of having it be your "go to fly" but it is open for discussion.

Please respond to this thread and email hookemswaps@yahoo.com with the fly you will tie.

OK Count me in. I'm not sure any one fly is a go to fly, but I will tie one I call Vadar's Ghost. The recipe is an old family secret to be shared with those who get in. Let me know the particulars.

Why not, but if you want a trout recipe, you'll have to go elsewhere, all I've ever done is wrap em in foil and throw them in the fire. I'll tie a Lime Trude, can you guess what my recipe will be?

I am in.

My goto fly would have to be a Mohair leach pattern. Red to be exact, and weighted of course.
