Unfortunately I have to give this one a miss though because I don't quite have the right materials. :ripped: But out of curiosity would you have taken a recalcitrant Aussie? Yes, of course you would have been welcome. I welcome all from everywhere. Just was going to leave the Intnl postage through PMs. Sometimes Itntls find it easier to pay postage through PayPal. lykos33 - sorry we are going to miss you on this one. SullyTM, Bruce Derington, fishingbobnelson, Trout_Patrol and Student4evr Welcome to the swap. This should be another quality swap, I am of course, rating this by the caliber of the tiers in this swap. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SullyTM 0 Report post Posted February 8, 2011 Looks like Northern California is dominating this swap :headbang: There are 4 of us who must really be lookig to stock our fly boxes for some Spring trout fishing. Got to hand it to Horseshoes for this timely swap... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Horseshoes 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2011 SullyTM thanks. We still have some spots left here. Someone must be up to the challenge. By my count and it may be wrong..There are 5 spots left. They are a nice bunch of flies. Ones we should have in our box when the spring comes. California cannot be the dominator ...no other states tie dry? :hyst: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
