I had a special valentine present today when I arrived home from work. While the rest of the participants are eagerly awaiting their packages I have already begun enjoying my bounty. I have an alien specimen courtesy of Kevin Morlock which I’m not sure what I’m going to do with. You’ll know which one is his, it is the one with half a rabbit hide and a size 3/0 hook.
Lots of good flies all around, I already have some new ideas and I can’t wait to try out what other people are using. The swap was a great time and I think it was a great way to introduce yourself to different ideas and concepts for carp flies. Good bless you McTage.
You are a lucky man Nate. Going myself Friday, supposed to be 50F, still slow as it’s winter but I have open water. I think you could walk on your water. But, you have your flies! This is just too cool. Thanks McTage and everybody who contributed.

I’m jealous Gregg! I’m getting a little “cagey” right now and am looking forward to some of those hot summer afternoons.
Jealous…i’ll be checking the mail frequently.
you coming to OR in july Mctage? bring nate. we need someone to carry the extra rods.
Yeah, and I can even clean your waders at night too. I respect my elders.
Hah. That made me laugh out loud.
Only one thing to be done with that morlock fly. Road Trip! Whaddya think of the cheap bastard, I think that is a done deal on the DSP.
Yeah, that thing is ideal. Simple, buggy, and you can fish it anyway you want to. I’m fired up to try that thing out when the weather turns.
