  3. Now you are just showing off! ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿคฃ Really some beautiful flies, great job.
  4. I'll take the Zug Bug. The Zug Bug was the first fly I tied for my first swap on the Forum. I don't think I have tied more that a half dozen since. Hope these are better than the first ones.
  5. I will wait to hear if his family will finish or just return flies to tyers. Mine were going out today, but I will hold on to them for now. Tight Lines forever Kim
  6. Got a bunch of flies from flytire today, can't wait to get these wet.
  7. Once upon a time this site was sponsored by J. Stockard. I don't know why that ended. Since the web provider was changed a lot of features that would attract new tyers are gone. Probably the biggest loss was the fly pattern data base. Thousands of fly patterns, with recipes that you could scan by member. Also gone are the Forums for posting trout flies, salmon steelhead flies, which would them be added to the data base. Being able to go to back pages is now impossible if there are more than 5. You used to be able to see who was online at the bottom of the page. You could look them up and see what, if anything, they were posting. I know the original administrators of this site have lost interest, which is why they changed to a cheaper provide which has not done us any favors. I so miss the days 10 to 15 years ago, when there were several new swaps every week. In those days most swaps would fill the same day they were posted. I just love swapping flies, but postage costs keep going up, they priced our international swappers out of the Forum completely. We used to have so many Canadian members whose flies I miss.

  8. Hi swappers, While the site was down, I got four sets of great flies. Woodenlegs, Fruitrollup, Bill J and Rabbit Hole flies have all arrived. Thanks for joining, looking like a great set of files is building. Tight Lines to all, Bob ๐ŸŽฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
  9. Had to cancel this year, maybe next time.
  10. First set arrived today. Some spectacular parachutes from Trout Tramp.
  11. Thanks to everyone for the sign-ups. Glad to see some guys I have not had it a swap before. Just three spots left. ๐ŸŽฃ๐Ÿ˜Ž
