and big spinner.

Keep em coming guys..

 

[Broadheadscreek]

Mine will be in the mail tomorrow Wylie.

 

[theartoflee]

Everyone I will be sending the flies out next week. I still have yet to receive Al flies or Big Spinners flys. I did not receive any reply s recently from Jim so I am guessing he doesn't want to participate. Since its past the due date I will mail what I received early next week.

Thanks to all that participated!

 

[Big_Spinner]

Hi guys,

My flies just went out.

Sorry for the delay. I had a welcome, but unexpected spurt of real estate activity the last few weeks and have been busy!!

I hate it when work gets in the way of fishing stuff, although I did have to float the river one day to "show" a property!!!!

again, my apologies for slowing this up.

Jim

Jim

Dont worry Al did not mail his flys yet. So I will be sending out the flies once I recive your package. Everyone will get one extra of their flys back since Al did not get the flys to me.

 

[Big_Spinner]

Hey there,

Thanks for understanding.

I would suggest that you keep the "extra" fly for yourself for putting this together. I can't speak for everyone, but feel free to keep mine.

Jim

 

[brough]

I agree w/ Big_Spinner, add that fly to your collection.

 

[theartoflee]

Guys just wanted to let you know that Allen flies managed to sneak into the batch. I wanted to apologize to everyone for having me send them out so late. I personally think this swap has the best submissions of any swap that I have participated in but then again I am biased.

I hope to include something extra for all that participated in the swap. Jim has also been kind enough to kick in a flotant brush for all participants. I hope everyone is cool with the delay..

I should have them out by this weekend or at least hope to because I will be fishing Saturday..

 

[Broadheadscreek]

Got my flies today!

First of all I would like to apologize for my flies getting there late and I'm glad they made it in time to get in.

A big thank you to Wylie for heading up the swap! Got a bunch of great flies to try out next year can't wait to use them.

:thankyou: Wylie !! Great Job !!

 

[theartoflee]

Glad you got your flies.. if others are interested I might be willing to run one more swap. Lets see if those who participated in this swap might be willing to give it another go.

 

[Broadheadscreek]

I'm in if anyone else would like to do another swap Wylie.

 

[brough]

I am game, count me in.

 

[trico mike]

Don't know if I'll have time. Works busy the saltwater fishing is exploding and the deer are starting to rut. Maybe a month or 2 from now.

You know TAOF... if I wasn't so BUSY WORKING......

I would have joined.

Oh well, maybe next year.

You never know... they may make people EARN their free hand out this time next year.

Like sweeping the streets. That way they cannot say they are working above their skill level.

 

[Big_Spinner]

Flies a re great guys!

Nice job to all.

Going to give them a try tomorrow!!!

Jim

 

[dcabarle]

Few flies from the swap. Thanks for sending those over!

I'll take more pictures tomorrow. These were all taken with my droid.

 

[Broadheadscreek]

Very nice picture DC and taken on a phone to boot technology is great.

 

[brough]

Got a chance to pick up the flies and take a look. WOW! nice ties all. Thanks for doing the leg work Wylie. Hopefully they will kick but next year on the big D.

Have a good one all,

Brough
