has anyone else gave flys form the first 3 swaps a swim? or had any joy with them?

Jeez! You mean that monstrosity actually worked! Ha. You've made my day Salmonscotty. Well done on the fish too ;D

I was looking at my photobucket there, this is the fly. Will replace the stripped hackles with boar bristles and tie on a salar hook i think

I had a fish off the dee on an Eternal Optimist like the ones I tied for fly swap #2, but I guess that doesn't really count!

Nice one Alan, I'll be giving one of those a swim next week.

I hooked and ultimately lost a nice Don fish on a Monkey which is my offering and winging its way to your fly box shortly - I hope you all do better with it than I did
