Received the ties today as well. I was like a kid in a candy store. Opened em up like it was christmass morning. All the flies are great I cant wait to use them. My wife looked at me while I was opening up the package and watched me check em out. I think she was almost about to commit me to warren mental hospital. She Said I made her eye twitch. lol

thanks byahn32 for letting me know. that just made my day considering i worked overnight all week, finished up at 7am this morning and had to be back at 3. just getting to read that someone likes my fly and have had success with it makes me feel that much better.

I actually tied them, and he bought them off of me for the swap. 
The Lord has blessed us all today... It's just that he has been particularly good to me.
