Skip - great idea for a swap. Count me in - Following that link - Most likely a mix of dries and wets but we'll see what everyone else is up to. Again great idea - thanks!

I'll join. I was thinking of the same type of swap not too long ago. I would think it would be neat to have a classic wet fly swap.

+1 I've even thought about doing a small swap where everyone ties variations on the same classic. Heck, even the "standard" adams looks quite different from the original.
