netabrookie 0 Report post Posted September 10, 2015 A great looking box of mice were waiting in my mailbox. Thanks everyone and thank you Kevin for hosting. Now if you all will do me a favor please....take the ugly ones that I sent and quickly tear the toe tags off of them. If you don't immediately throw them away then maybe you will forget who tied such hideous creations. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted September 11, 2015 Set the mail on the table and the cat jumped up and attacked one of the packages. Seems like it was full of mice. Great looking set from everybody. Some of them are just beyond the normal great quality of the swaps. They're all good but some people's work with hair surpasses anything I hope to be able to do sometime in the future. Feathers and fur work for me pretty well but spinning hair and making good foam bodied flies doens't. That's why the swaps work so well to fill the voids in the boxes I can't do very well and hopefully they can make use of my offerings, if for nothing other than sacrificing to some toothy critters.

I don't know if anyone else is going to take pictures, but I am. I'll get them posted in the next day or two. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikechell 0 Report post Posted October 3, 2015 Sorry this took so long ... I said I'd take pictures and life and death got in the way. SO here, finally, are pictures of the flies I got. For the most part, the toe tags are still on ... This one didn't have a tag ... so, I am not sure who tied it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
