Havent had problems with anyone elses although 3 tiers failed to give me a return stamped envelope (ahh well). Also, I pay about $1.92 each way, so $4 per round trip. Some of the other fliers managed to get them out even cheaper. I understand your frustration and will be sure to throw you some extra goodies for the hassle. I have written confirmation from everyone that their flies are in the mail. Whos did I receive from canada 2 days back? looked like JM on the tag or something?

larmie44 0 Report post Posted May 17, 2010 I hear ya. Sorry this swap is still running slowly. Deadline was yesterday, I was trout fishing an hour south of tahoe with only mediocre luck... Still need 2, which are both rumored to be on there way according to the pm's I received... Will turn them around immediately once i get them all in...

larmie44 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2010 I should be able to photo these tomorrow night and send them out. I am thinking I might be the last tier since we are at least one short, by tying a fat flash cadis pupae. I am also going to send out 1-2 random flies for the tiers who did 14 since we only came up with 11 + my caddis is 12. Seems like Nymph swaps arent terribly popular.

Robert M 0 Report post Posted May 19, 2010 Seems like Nymph swaps arent terribly popular. Nope it is more like swap season is mostly over, most people are into fishing by now. There are usually only a few hardcore swappers doing swaps this late in the season. They usually pick up a bit during the dog days of summer again especially in the deep south and then really get going again when it gets real cold again. Looking forward to seeing the flies thanks for your work in this swap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
larmie44 0 Report post Posted May 20, 2010 Robert, I appreciate your kind words....here is a breakdown of the current stats on this swap Havent received flies from bendmar or rich, so only 8/10 in... 3 Swappers didnt provide an envelope or postage 1 swapper didnt provide postage but provided the envelope... The other 5 kicked ass.. Can you send me all of your full addresses, names, and screen name on here so I can properly match these up and get them in the mail? 3/8 swappers that got them in used toe tags. Please PM me.

larmie44 0 Report post Posted May 22, 2010 UPDATE I have sorted the flies and made some executive decisions...as follows. My Flies - Received Elaine's Flies - Sent JM Parker Double set - Need addy then will send Matt Hill - Sent Ken Cochrane - sent Stephen Arthur - sent Robert - sent Cheri - I dont have an envelope for you I dont think ,or postage. As such I will need you to paypal me $3.50. Same thing with Chollo23. If there is a discrepancy just shoot me a PM and let me know. I have sent PMs to 5 swappers and have received hardly any replies and quite frankly I am about done wasting time trying to put this swap together. If you participated and your flies are getting sent out per the above, thank you. Your flies were beautiful, your great swappers and I am very happy with how prompt you were in tying. Special thanks to Jeremy who double tied because one of his packages was lost in the mail for about 1.5 months and arrived just the other day. I have containers for OleFish and need to figure out who you are olefish, so I can send your container back to you instead of just the envelope. Totally my bad here for getting this mixed up. Thanks All! Chris Larmore Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
