I've never done a swap before, but if you've still got room, I'd like to join. I've been tying for a number of years.

I got my hat handed to me this past fall by not having many midge patterns in my box, and I was planning to fill that void this offseason anyway.

As for patterns, I'll have to get back to you. I'm thinking emerger or pupa.

How many do we need to tie?

Thanks for organizing.

I'm not sure of the names of my midge patterns but I'll make something up (for now let's consider them no-name midges). I know they will catch fish and they will either be size 24 or 26.

If anyone thinks I need to go smaller, let me know. I'm going to buy hooks this weekend. -JeffW
