gpd4 0 Report post Posted March 15, 2010 Looks like you'll be getting at least 4 new dries from the tax day swap. I'd do it, but I have yet to 'complete' any swaps. I've got one recieved by the host, one somewhere in the usually capable hands of the US or Canadian Postal Service, and one packed up at home waiting for an address. I joined the poppers and the stonefly swaps, but have not tied any of them yet... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I just wanted to participate in another swap so that I could start hosting them...I also would have joined the popper swap but I don't have any popper bodies. :-( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've done enough swaps here to host, and have to admit I'm partial to the dries. I just sent off some flies for another trout dry swap on this board, but hey, can't have enough, right? Let me know. I'll get refreshed on the rules and see about setting one up. John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark, Yep, the old rule of participating in three swaps before hosting is still in effect. I'll host so hopefully this'll help you get on your way. I need to let board staff know ahead of time that I'm hosting and then I can announce. Are you looking for any size/type of trout dry, or did you have a particular flavor in mind--mayfly, caddis, hopper, particular material? I've personally been working on furled flies lately, so that's where my mind (and materials) are ;-) John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
