Smalliehunter's Smallmouth Fly Swap #2

Recommended Posts

No worries here....

 

As mine are coming from Canuckistan, they may be held up at the border for ages anyway.... They gotta be checked for Mad Marabou Disease and to make sure there was no softwood lumber used to make 'em. biggrin.gif

 

I'm just glad that mine won't (or may not be) the last to arrive.... heh heh

 

Cheers!

Yeah right, it's an addiction. Nothing like opening up that envelope to see all the new flys you've got. I told myseldf yesterday no more swaps for a month or so since I'm involved in 5 as we speak, but I know if the right one pops up it'll be 6 laugh.gif

All,

 

I sent my flies to Will yesterday by priority mail.

 

My pattern was a #8 Clouser Swimming Nymph in a "softshell crayfish" color.

 

Best,

 

Tim

I got Gary's and mrjim's today. We will be a little late on this one but we have a few weeks before the Smallie season starts in full force.

Here is an updated list on the flies that I have received. Looks like another day or two and everybody's will be in. It's always nice to have a swap where nobody drops out. I will get the pic thread updated either tonight or tomorrow.
