The last set at least from what I can tell came in the mail today.

I will be sorting them out tonight and if all goes as planned I will be getting them in the mail tomorrow. If you dropped them off or I picked them up from you send me an email to arrange a time to meet.

Stef I will take some Oatmeal Raisin cookies this time.

Flies are sorted and will be going to the post office on Thursday, unless you were one of the late ones, then whenever I feel the urge to mail them or drop them off then I will.


I had an email from someone stating that they have a new address to mail the flies to if you read this please email me ASAP.

Stef,

I'll supply the raisins for T4X's cookies. I found a cache of 'em up on Piss Ant Flats right around a sheep camp.

Right on RAW, sheep seeds for the Ex-Lax cookies! We may laugh now, but I've seen the man eat - even knowing the ingredients, he will eat them.

Stef, I will deliver your flies as promised, will you be at work friday or is it on of those government holidays again? ;)

Steelie she was one of the late ones, I haven't had the urge yet, nor have I smelled any cookies.

If you come to the C A meeting tonight you can bring them. If not leave 'em with Jim at RoundRocks. Or whatever else is easy for you.

I could stop by and get them out of the milk box...................

I picked up all the crappy flies last night over at the miester's house. Nicely crappily done everybody, well impressed. I don't know if I should go catch some crappies with these or maybe even better; some boneless brown trout. Cheech, how do you catch them so effectively? ;)

I'm looking forward to seeing those crappy flies that will just sit in my box taking up space. Bet none of them will be any good! ('cept mine of course!) :)

Got the flies today, nice job everyone. There are some fine flies in that bunch. I can't wait to start feeding them to the stream side bushes.

cheech, that soft shell craw you tied........WOW!

Stef, appearantly T4X already gave you yours? I will bring the "extras" by that I owe you. And thanks again for helping me out.

I didn't make the meeting tonight because some old guy talked me into going fishing. I didn't even have a feeble excuse like Teewinot's and his anniversary.
I'll catch up to you some time.

Is that all of the flies? I don't see either of the ones I tied in the picture.

Were they that bad?

These flies are great! When it comes right down to it, I guess it was worth the wait. I had to buy another flybox and I filled the whole thing with these great flies. Now I just need to go out and use them. Thanks everyone.

Thanks for hosting the swap. You put a lot of time and effort into it, and it's appreciated.

I received some very nice patterns from this swap.

Thanks.

Trouty:

Those are all that I received. I only saved the tags with recipes and I didn't see your tag in there. As I count them it looks like there are only 46. What did you tie? Maybe we'll have to go fishing some time and I can get a set :)

Trout4X:

Yes, thanks for hosting the swap. You said in the first post that you had always wanted to host a 100 person swap. Well? Can we expect the "Mother of All Swaps" next?

Start tying now so when I host it in the fall you will be ready. I will host it again and try and double it.

I want to thank everyone that was in the swap, I was pleased with the patterns that were entered.


Thanks again, I hope you join again in the fall.

Got my flies and I love em!! Great job. Sorry I missed the raisin donation RAW!!! I would love to take you up on it when they have aged a few months ;)
Steelie..you can give me the flies during our next meeting. Pass them across the table in front of T4X!! They are excellent flies...can't wait to use them.
