Linesides 0 Report post Posted November 14, 2005 Dave, Please do not rush this swap because of me, take your time guys until you get what you want for tiers. But if you want to go with what we have thats ok with me. Do I understand you that we would tie up 2 patterns? And how many flies? Please bear with me this is only my third swap. A lot of questions.

hunthicks 0 Report post Posted November 19, 2005 gray squirrel, just sent you a PM, so check your PM's. It seems like noone else joined, so we'll go with each guy tieing 10 flies, 5 of each pattern, and we'll make the due date for me receiving them December 12th, so I can ship them out and they'll get there right around Christmas time. My address is: David Hicks 37 Russell street Amherst, NS B4H 2S5 Canada The canadian guys can send a self stamped envelope if they wish, the US guys can send a self addressed envelope, and either $5 or 4 IRC's, whichever is cheaper for you. I believe last time I took IRC's in I got $1.20 worth of stamps from each one, so 4 should cover Small Packet postage to the USA. I got my flies all ready tied, so i can't wait to see what you guys come up with. Dave Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Linesides 0 Report post Posted November 24, 2005 I just realized looking at my pattern book. I combined 2 different to create that pattern, I missed the red dubbing. This could be a weird spider pattern, this might be a new pattern who knows. Happy Thanksgiving to all and I hope all is well with you and your families. Dave PS Its snowing here like crazy!!!!!!!!!!
