I have spoken with Bules Brother and his should be arriving today.

 

I plan to start packing flies to send back on Monday, unless I hear from the other three.

I received some good looking flies from Blues Brother today. It was the slowest trip by US Mail I think it could have been. He mailed them on the 8th in time to arrive by the deadline.

 

On another note. I have not received flies nor heard from 3 people. I am planning on seperating flies and mailing them in the next day or so. What would you all like to do with the extra flies? I can send you back your own flies or I can split the extras and randomly send you back flies. You all tell me what you would like for me to do.

Well lets see, I tied twice the amount of flies needed for the swap so I would have lots for the season so I do not need any of the ones I tied back. I would be just as happy if you kept the extras if you want them. You put in the work into organizining the swap so I feel that you can have the extras of mine, that idf you want beginners flies :D T hanks for organizing the swap.

Brian,

 

I say keep some extras for yourself and then randomly distribute the rest to the other swappers. I had to do the same thing for a swap I hosted for another site and it was well received.

 

Thanks for organizing this,

All the flies went out today except for those to Canda. I was not able to get to the Post Office today. I will get there tomorrow. All the flies look good. Thanks for the good swap guys.

:yahoo: Got mine yesterday. Thanks Bryan for running the swap. My friends couldn't believe the midges - 'what fish do you catch on something that small?' was a common question... :bugeyes:
