Thread: Bream Jig Swap

Bream, Bluegill, Coppernose, or whatever you want to call em, let's tie some up for them. This is a perfect time to try something new if you wish. There are many "trout" flies that will produce exceptionally well for panfish. I have tied a fly in the past called Madam X, but have never tied it on a jighead. Therefore, for the swap I will be tying a Madam X on a jighead. I encourage anyone wanting in on this swap to do a little looking around for something "new". I have added some links for panfish patterns to get you started. However, if you have a "KILLER" bream jig by all means swap that one with us. Rules for the swap are as follows.

*Sign-up will end 12/31/2008 or until all spots are filled whichever comes first
*Swap is limited to 11 participants
*Must be tied on a jighead
*All jigs are to be in by 1/31/2009

LedHed - Woolybugger 1/32 #8 hook

Well that didn't take long. Better get in early boys, this one might go fast. I also recieved an IM from ejones1961 stating his interest.

An added side note if I may (and I can cause I am the Swapmeister LOL :D).

Just remember if you are tying from a "trout" pattern, the orientation of the hook may be inverted for the given "fly". So in essence, you may be tying upside down. Man I am sooooo evil

Put me in. I will be tying on a 1/32 oz head, don't know what pattern it will be yet
