Wow the poppers should have been there by now, I've had flies get to Canada faster :blink: In the end if there are any extras, keep them for yourself. Thanks again for hosting.

I received flies today from fliesandfish and they are some sweet hairy gurglers, all we need now are Rich's flies which should have been here a long time ago, can you post a picture of your flies to make sure I did not mix them up with another envelope. As far as I am concerned Orange Caddis is out of this swap since I have yet to hear from him.

Yellow Bream Popper with Black Spots, a Black Marabou Tail and Yellow Hackle. If they don't show up by Friday then sort the flies and send them out. I don't want you holding up the swap do to my lost flies. Should they show up later just send them back.

It's Friday and I hope everyone has big plans for fishing this weekend, I myself will be spending both days looking for big and little trout in the sierra's, which is basically my back yard. As for the swap I will separate the flies this weekend and if I do not receive Rich's by Monday they will go out in the mail on Tuesday. I really hope they show because I love poppers and do not tie them myself. This is a sweet collection of flies from everyone. As for the extra ones since Orange Caddis has not appeared and if Rich's do not show I was planning on donating them to a worthy cause. I am with a fly fishing club that does a lot of work for charities so I was thinking of putting them in for one of the raffles that we. If anyone would prefer to have their extras back send me a PM and I will include them in your return package.

 

Have a great weekend and go fishing.

Flies are separated and boxed, they will be in the mail tomorrow. The extra flies will be going to a worthy charity through my fly club, they will make some people happy for sure. The only thing that will stop the flies going out tomorrow is if Rich's lost in the mail flies show up. Thanks to everyone for being in this swap and I hope you enjoy all the flies, I know I will. The will be put to work starting on Tuesday.

Hey Rich, guess what just showed up in the mail today. I will put them back in the mail tomorrow, would you mind if I gave you one of my flies in exchange for one of your flies???

I tied the orange one and I think I threw a foam bug in for you. Also grab one of the yellow poppers.
