rich5665 0 Report post Posted July 2, 2009 NWPAsteelie - your flies arrived, yes the toe tags were missing. Not a biggie I'll print some up at work on Monday Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich5665 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2009 I received a PM and an appologie from Jimmyboy, h has dropped from the swap. I will tie up another fly in place of his. I have been toying with a Scud Pattern in Size 14 and will try it in a size 16 to see how it looks. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NWPAsteelie 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2009 Sorry about the toe tags. I hope everyone enjoys my pattern. I havent seen it on this website yet. Its a reverse para with no post. Works excellent as an emerger or a dun. If fishing like an emerger you should grease the first little bit of your tippet so that it sinks a little bit.

rich5665 0 Report post Posted July 3, 2009 I'll print toe tags up on Monday. Just waiting for three packages to arrive. Thistles may take a little bit it's coming from Scotland. If everything arrives next week, then I should have them out by Friday. I'll keep everyone posted. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ibian 0 Report post Posted July 13, 2009 Rich I am starting to get a little worried they were sent over a week and a half ago :wallbash: If they don't show up today let me know and I'll whip up a new batch and send it out again tommorow on the fast track. Figures this is the first one I didn't send by air. If you end up with two sets well Merry Christmas to ya. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Figures this is the first one I didn't send by air. If you end up with two sets well Merry Christmas to ya. The last set of swap flies I received out of Canada came from Wellman, they took almost three weeks to get across the border. So no worries yet. I believe thistles flies are waiting at the post office for me, but I'm not sure. I was waiting for a package from China Found a nice Solar Charger for my phone, going green :headbang: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rich5665 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2009 ibian and thistle I think your flies have been lost to the Abyss known as the US Postal service. Let me know how you would like to manage this. I don't think anyone would mind waiting if you want to try sending another set. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich5665 0 Report post Posted July 20, 2009 I have decided to wait until this Friday fro the remaining packages to arrive. If nothing shows up by July 24 then the flies that I have will be sorted and sent out on Saturday July 25 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
