Lieutenant, is there a six-foot bat in Gotham City? And if so, is he on the police payroll? And if so, what's he pulling down after taxes?

I have a bad habit of collecting my swap flies instead of using them but I had to use these. My plan was to catch fish on each streamer and post photos but as murphy's law would have it, realized I didn't charge up the batteries on the camera. I pulled it out after my first fish and no charge. I had two full days of fishing and every fly tied in this swap brought fish to hand. If you are like me and do swaps for ideas and collecting, stop. All of these flies work. Nushranger- that fly is one of the most fun to fish I have ever used.

Got mine today.
Ya' know, every time I do a swap we all get online at the end and talk about how well everyone did & it's true. Everybody works hard to send in their best. Recognition of your work by fellow anglers is important.
However, this swap is exceptional. The quality of workmanship in this set of flies, IMHO, is far beyond the average swap. I would match this set of streamers against any other out there.
Sincerely, Well done to all - DH
