day5 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2005 Arkie dont let me take that the wrong way. As of right now the deadline is August 12. My suggestion was only to moves it up. But I am glad that you had so much fun at my expence. I am finishng few sales of about 300 flies and I need to get started tying flies for a trip that I am taking Up north for a week. I am half way done at this point with the swap so as long as the dead line is after the 4th Ill be ok. day5 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lukemccoy.com 0 Report post Posted June 11, 2005 Whenever the deadline will be, final, is fine with me. I just got back from a park trying out my new orvis setup, see the TalkFlyFishing forum, but got skunked, again, see the other forum. I was hoping my Red Griff would catch some fish and I could post some pictures. Better luck tomorrow! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
day5 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2005 Um this is my first swap so Im new at this. Where are we sending the flies? 12 flies right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Blueman89 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2005 FlyFisher09 is the swapmister.I think he is in Indiana. There are 10 participants. You can send 12 with 2 for the swapmister or you could only send him one, your choice. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyFisher09 0 Report post Posted June 16, 2005 I'm pleased with your gracious thoughts of sending me extra flies. But really, don't worry about it. Instead, I would ask you to do this: inside the envelope withyour flies, include a second envelope that is addressed to you. This will almost eliminate the chance of me sending your flies back to the wrong address. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sharpster68 0 Report post Posted June 23, 2005 I got all my flies tied. Just need to know where to send them. I got the oak pendulum cradle finished for my daughter and my grand baby that is on the way. Her husband got back from Okinawa last week but the doctors wont let her travel so she is stuck here living with me my wife and 11 yr old daughter till three weeks after the baby is born which is a good thing cause we dont have to travel to be there for the babies birth. Just need to know where to send the flies and im ready when everyone else is. Oh and by the way my broken leg is getting better not hurting so much now.
