Parachute swap any takers.....

[JTaylor 0]

OK guys,

Here a nice idea, "A Parachute Fly Swap"

 

The rules are the standard: (feel free to PM me any questions)

 

13 tiers including the Swapmaster me…

 

You each tie 12 flies, mail your flies to swapmaster with return postage and envelope.

 

I was thinking a due date of April 5th, that would allow me to have them sorted and mailed back on or before 20th of April

 

Any Parachute fly will count for this swap, so send in your White Miller, Adams, Blue Wing Olive etc….

 

First 12 who respond with an "I'm In and the name of your fly" will be in the swap. Lets use a #12 hook.

All are welcome ...

 

1 -JTaylor, Black Stonefly-Swapmaster

2 -Herman, parachute ant

3 -Crotalus, Klinkhamer style

Hey Joe I put you down for the Klinkhamer style, sounds cool.

let me know if thats ok..

[Redleg 0]

I'll try this one... how about a dark cahill here.

 

I'll warn you, my dry's are decent, but I might have to make a couple practice ties. Haven't done a lot of parachutes over the years, though I should.....

I'll get in on some of that! How about an Adam's?

[Guest]

I need to close this swap

It’s not that I want to piss anyone off or anything, it’s just we have a rule that may have been overlooked

 

A swapmister must have participation in Three (3) successful swaps on this web site.

No participants under Eighteen years of age unless pre-approved by specific request to management and only under supervision of an adult.

 

These rules are not meant as a impediment to swapmisters or swaps.

The rules are made to help protect swappers and swapmisters conduct successful swaps.

 

Taylor contact me if you have any questions

[Guest]

OK

 

This is what I have decided to do

 

I will open this swap back up and ask for a Swapmister to host the swap that meet the criteria of FTF

 

 

Thank You

OSD.

I think it's better for me not to be SM. Those flies have to go to Holland and back...............

Hopefully there will be a Swapmaster..................
