He's our local smuggler. Smugglers usually like to keep a low profile.
My flies are all packed and ready for shipping. They'll go out Monday. Maybe I'll get a pic of one of the...didn't make it extras. Thanks for miestering this swap.

In case some of you have trouble reading my hand printed toe tags ( they kind of remind me of something a 2d grader would do), here's the recipe.
(Sorry, no picture)
Hook: Daiichi 1180 size 12
Thread: Pearsall's Gossamer Hot Orange
Hackle: Some stubborn, free willed, orangish brown feather from Jeff
Rib: Gold Oval Silver Tinsel
Body: Some fur from an animal I'm sure Jeff shot off his back porch.
I found I don't have the address to send the flies to. Any help would be appreciated. A PM would be best as it takes up to 15 minutes for each thread page to load. Gotta love public wi-fi.

Ron...... maybe the feathers were from me, but I usually only include well behaved ones...... William did add some hen cape sections in some of the packs, maybe your unruly feathers came from him?
Not quite from the "back porch" but if it were possum, odds are it was within walking space of the back porch!

Ron Eagle Elk, Howdy;
If your "stubborn, free willed, orangish brown feather" looks like the feather patch
in my "Unruly Class Portrait" then it came from dub-ya. He was kind enough to ID it for me.
Looking forward to seeing your fly as well as those from the rest of the crew on this swap.
