DavidHE 0 Report post Posted March 13, 2014 Thanks for the heads up! A bit of a drive, but well worth it for a good day of fishing. I'll check it out. Thanks for hosting another great swap! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted March 14, 2014 Yep, had a great package of tenkara flies in the mail today. Look forward to fishing these just like soft hackle, or maybe I'll buy a 12' cane pole and experiment with the "tenkara thrill". Thanx for hosting and hope we all get chances to use them soon.

DavidHE 0 Report post Posted March 17, 2014 Vicrider- If you lived anywhere nearby I say let's meet up and you could use one of my rods for the day. Henrik- there were 12 tiers spots (including host) so anyone tying 12 (myself included) was always going to get one of your own back. 2 slots were never filled, so your extras came back. I think that's right anyhow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Henrik Henrik, Exactly what DavidHE said. Tying 12 normally means you get one of your own back. But, because we were a couple tyers short, you got more than just one back. The good news is, we had some super productive people in this swap, so everyone wasn't shorted on the return. Thanks for participating! Maybe next time, we can encourage a full group of 12.
