Here is one of the flies I'll be tying for the swap. It is a pattern that my buddy down in Idaho came up with. It is called the Chronic Midge. The size will be either 20 or 22.. This fly has caught lots of fish in many of our rivers.

The way the fly I posted got its name was my buddy's friend had a hard time saying "chironomid" one day so he just kept calling the fly the chronic midge.

Midge Swap,
The final tally is 11 tiers. This means you will have to tie 10 flies of each pattern that you are submitting. If you want, you can tie an extra one of each so that I can send a set to dkile, host of this fine site. I will be "PM"ing everyone my address in the next couple of days when I get a little more time. JH
