Has been lots of talk about running another tie-&-post type thread.  Not a whole lot of advance notice, but lets give it a shot for Saturday night, 2/27..  I have nothing better to do Saturday night.  :D

Out here...
Going fishing Saturday, but will try to jump in later... It is a 35 mile drive one way to the nearest boat ramp for me!

I should be around all evening on Saturday. Heck, all day too, but am sure i will be getting my honey-do schedule at some point.

Good luck Mel, maybe you will be able to come back with the winning color combo for the day!

Wow, speak of the devil and she shall appear!  :p  Just got a text message that i am going shopping for a new upright freezer to go in the basement.  Guess i do have something to do during the day on Saturday.  I will be tying either way in the evening, have to get my swap jigs finished up.

Count me in!!! I'll have to paint some heads. I don't have many colors, but I should be able to do something...... I've got loads of chenille and all sorts of tailing materials.

AF, chest-style deep-freezers are more efficient..... I need to get one of those myself.

HMK, I'm not sure. I was thinking it was going to be 7 pm EST, but it might be later than that, so Fin and Fur can participate without messing his schedule up to much.

I don't have to work tomorrow. If it ends up being a late one, I'll start drinking coffee :) Really ought to throw a little Kahlua or Bailey's into the coffee; that'll keep me awake while loosen the inhibitions and let the creative juices flow....

I find myself watching A LOT of youtube lately. Fly patterns, fishing various rivers in my area, kayaking various rivers in my area, and an old hobby of mine, using a metal detector....

I watch Ben Tedrick (Fish Tales) quite a bit. He is one heck of a fisherman and fly Tyer. I watch Fly Fish Food too, plus a bunch of other folks

I never done one either. I haven't tied since before Christmas. I've been having eye trouble so it may be interesting to see how they do.

If I remember right, someone decides a color combo. Isn't it Head/Body/Tail? Hypothetically, if someone called Chart/Red/White, it would mean a chartreuse head, red body, and white tail? And the materials used to tie that could be "whatever fits" as long as it's the color called for?

I don't have many head colors. I've got white, copper and deep red, but I'll try to hang with you guys. I  just may have to do plan heads.
