This link is the best information I've seen in one place for people wanting to swap or run swaps. It is one the blog of one of our premier fly tyers Flytire himself and gives swap information we all can benefit from. https://flytyingnewandold.blogspot.com/search?q=fly+swaps In addition, all swappers wanting to become swapmeisters, must have participated in a minimum of 3 fly swaps. Swapmeisters should complete one fly swap before starting another one. No running multiple fly swaps at once.

Red squirrel tails -- will trade for tied flies
flytire replied to Gray Ghost's topic in Classifieds
please identify the type of flies you would like to trade for and for how many flies you want per tail -
while pirate ship is a bit cheaper the usps it still costs about $8.30 or more both ways and depending on distance i limit my swapping to just a couple of swapmeisters and one i will not swap with all of the deleted forums and deleted fly pattern database is still available for viewing only on the "wayback machine" website. i think we're lucky to have what we have
