YOU SHOULD HAVE YOUR FLIES IN BY JUNE 25th. I might re-enroll later, when I know the total flies that should be sent. Otherwise, the ones I have done are yours, gratis, to give the other swappers. I do not want any flies back at this phase............ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vicrider 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2020 Samsonboi, I apologize but I just more or less forgot about this swap going on. I know there was a lot of trouble getting this swap going ahead but now that you've set a due date that is still leaving time I'll get in for sure. I told you earlier I would but plain forgot with all the others I was working on. I'll look up flies and find something in there to tie. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

samsonboi 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2020 Woodenlegs, Vicrider, and Alberta Al have their flies in at this point. I am waiting on adkfan cause he said he was still in. I’m thinking SpringCreek is gonna default. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted July 17, 2020 Samsonboi, there comes a time when you need to firm up on your swaps if you're going to get people to join you in swapping. Your swaps seem to go on forever and there comes a time when you have post dates and without good reason from a late comer keep those dates. Send reminders toward the end and if they're not on their way on time you may just have to shut the swap down and send out and divvy up what you have. A six month swap gets a little ridiculous. I've forgotten we even had this going but now I'm anxious for both the flies and the promised box from you. If someone from our board just doesn't keep commitment let me know and that person will have to explain before being in swaps here again. Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flytire 0 Report post Posted July 18, 2020 i agree with the above ^^^ i hope in the future you try to run a fly swap on only one forum at a time. you're running the same swap on two different forums i remember a swap you hosted on the classic forum that lasted over 5 months. this one is about 2 months long and no end in sight its one reason i wont join your swaps as you do not follow up on your own set deadlines and just let it slip by. not a good way to run a swap as people wont want to sign up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samsonboi 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2020 Well people did get signed up late. I was really hoping that the other 2 members would get their flies in. Also the flies have been out in transit from my place for a couple days now. It was 2 guys from CFRF that defaulted and I did send several reminders. Nick, thanks for reminding me about the box. I forgot to put it in the package but I will send it out by itself now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vicrider 0 Report post Posted July 21, 2020 I should have reminded you sooner. I even had the PO weigh the return package with a Perrine box on it to cover extra postage and included a bigger envelope. Oh well, I tried to make it easy for you. Will look forward to flies and box in future. Right now I have a package that's traveled halfway around the country and is finally getting closer. I love our little PO and the gals who work there but right now the USPS is having it's own share of troubles keeping up with everything since mail order and online ordering is putting a burden on shipping, plus overseas shipping is a nightmare with the reduced plane travel. I'm only thankful USPS, UPS, Fedex, and any others keeping us supplied are doing their best to keep up with things. Nick Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
