    The wings are actually tied at a 45 degree angle and not perpendicular, as the other picture in the database shows; I do actually know the difference between a spinner and a Dunn.

    I merely used this view because I like how the picture shows off the wings, and the fly....

     

     

     

    It looks more like a spinner pattern with dun colored wings. In other words, it's not a dun pattern...technically. Sorry, I'm just beimg anal.

     

    However, it looks nice.

    Well.

    Luckily I had some time today to go to the post office. Cause it took me like 40 minutes to fill out all the customs forms. :rolleyes:

     

    Anyways, all the flies are in the mail back to you all.

     

    For postage, many of you sent a few bucks. In order to not piss off bank tellers and minimize time in the bank, I took all of the cash received lumped it all together, and converted it to Canadian.

    I then took that lump sum and paid for the postage for all of the packages that needed postage. This was needed because a couple of people didn;t send postage or means to buy postage.

     

    The total cost for return postage was somewhat less than money received for postage. However, I don't know who sent how much.

    On previous mailings that I have sent out, they cost $5.25 per package. I now know that this was because of the bubble wrap envelopes I was using. (Too fat)

     

    Packages that were not bubble wrap cost 2.11 to send to the states, and 4.10 overseas.

     

    So, a couple people sent a couple extra dollars for postage. I don't remember who sent what. If anyone feels they were treated unfairly with this, please PM me, and I will mail you a couple bucks and a fly.

     

    This was my first time hosting a swap, so now I have all the kinks worked out for future swaps. That being said, look out for my next swap..... its going to be a bait fish imitations... :headbang:

     

     

    Okay.

     

     

    As for pictures of the flies. My wife went to visit her family for the week and consequently took the camera with her, so it'll be a week or so before I will have a chance to take some pics.

     

     

    Thankyou to everyone for participating in the swap.

     

    Questions?? Comments??? Sarcastic Remarks????? PM me.

    I am not sure. I do know that we don't get mail on Saturday like you guys do down there. But you would think that mail would still travel.

    Oh, well. What can you do.

     

    By the way. Scott's flies got here today. So they're all in. I'll sort em tomorrow, and take a few pictures, and get them in the mail as soon as I can.

     

    Thank you all for your participation in the swap. I will let you know when I get them in the mail.

    I got flies from Roll Q__Cast the other day. Thankyou.

    We are still waiting on three sets. FlytyinFreak pm'd me that his package got turned back due to water, so that's unfortunate.

     

    So, I will inform you when they're all in. And then I'll do the turn around as fast as I can.

    Thankyou for your patience.

     

    Here is an updated list.

    Justin,

    my flies are in the mail and on their way to you. I put $5 in the package for postage, since you are in Canada I could not put American stamps on it for return postage, atleast that is what the post office told me. $5 should be enough, if not let me know, it cost less than $2 to ship from me to you.

     

     

    Sounds great. That should be good. If there is any change I will send it back. As for costs. Ya, more than double from me to you, than from you to me.

     

    Go figure.

     

    Justin
