Are they all there yet? (lol) I am really anxious to see what some of these are and get new recipes. Just wanted to say thanks for hosting the swap also. Look forward to seeing all the new additions to my fly box, so thanks to all who participated.

I got more today, from BegginerFlytyer. Although I still only have 8 sets. If they are not mailed by the the 5th then I will have to take you out of the swap (this is a message for everyone!). I will send the extra flies back to their owners unless otherwise stated by them here. Thank you all.

You can keep the extras. This being my first swap, I didn't think to send extras like I would have wanted to as a Thanks for hosting.
