djgunter 0 Report post Posted May 29, 2012 Would any tiers from this thread be interested in joining a realistic or semi-realistic fly swap? I would like to arrange one, and the keep the number of swappers to a minimum to make it more viable. Let me know of your thoughts. Thanks! Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djgunter 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2012 Okay so there is some interest! I was thinking of having a long lead time so a due date around 2 months after everything has been decided and finalized. Does that sound good? Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djgunter 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2012 Also, would anyone be interested in hosting? I am in Hong Kong and it might be a logistical problem if everyone were to mail to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bluegill576 0 Report post Posted May 30, 2012 I wouldn't be able to participate if I have to mail the flies to hong kong because I really just can't afford the international swaps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riffleriversteelheadslayer 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 are you looking for fishable or display? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
djgunter 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 I would like everyone to have their say on that matter. Display realistics may be to difficult and time consuming for everyone to produce. A semi-realistic swap may be more suitable I reckon. Dan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
riffleriversteelheadslayer 0 Report post Posted May 31, 2012 the reason I was asking is I found this guy willing to pose for pictures the other day I was thinking about tying him for this swap depending on how many you are going to let in Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djgunter 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2012 I would definitely like to get this swap going but we need to resolve who will be the swapmeister & where as I am in Hong Kong. Would anyone here be interested in hosting? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

djgunter 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2012 I think for most other swappers its important for the host to be stateside to avoid costly shipping costs...anyone in the US willing to host? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
