Ridleyffo 0 Report post Posted July 14, 2009 I'm getting some new materials and tools. Can't find the old ones. When tools mysteriously vanish and your materials disappear, someone somewhere very close to you is trying to tell you something. Sounds like "tough love". Swapoholics Anonymous is considering forming a support group for distressed loved ones Or you could just get your wife arrested for grand larceny.

I keep feeling like I shouldn't tie. :crying: How can I tie them when I am suppose to be cutting back. This swap is confusing. :wallbash: Glad for the deadline. I must be having withdraws :hyst: :hyst: Just have to decide what my poison will be. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I lost a Clouser Minnow to a sunken log last night :crying: Both flies look great and thanks to both of you for the extras. Now to find another fly box...

Swapoholics Anonymous is considering forming a support group for distressed loved ones Or you could just get your wife arrested for grand larceny. Might think about that, however, this is one of those cases where, "I hope my wife doesn't sell my fishing stuff for what I told her I paid for it". :wallbash: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rfinn 0 Report post Posted August 15, 2009 Flies in the mail. Though I must say, this group has not been very effective in regards to my addiction. All this has done is get me to join other swaps. Now in the Streamer swap. Thanks for all your support everyone, but the SA group just does not work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rich5665 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2009 Thought I had the addiction beat, I was only in two swaps in August. Then I fell off the swap wagon and loaded up on swaps for the first two weeks of September. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smalltownfisherman 0 Report post Posted August 17, 2009 Hey Rich, Sorry about not being very active on your swap thread here... I have decided on a Mickey Finn, and am almost half-way done. gage Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rfinn 0 Report post Posted August 21, 2009 Just want to thank everyone involved in my attempted recovery. Not only have I entered more swaps since joining this group, I now am tying flies at much more regular sessions. My productivity has increased dramatically. Good Job Everyone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rich5665 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 I tried to stay away while on vacation, then I stopped in Gander Mountain. Went right to the Fly Fishing Section. After salivating over the dozen or so fly rods, I began running my fingers through the Salt Water Flies they had on display wondering just how hard it would be to tie some of the patterns up.

Rfinn 0 Report post Posted August 24, 2009 Yeah, the Gander's near me suck for fly fishing, but I still check out their stuff every time I am there. It's probably good for my marriage and my wallet that there is not a Cabela's or Bass Pro near my house. I'm trying to get my bro to start entering these swaps also, so that shows you just how ineffective this group has been. Can't wait to get the flies.
