Naturally the postal service managed to get flies from Pennsylvania and Eastern Oregon here in two days, flies from Central California however did not arrive today. :wallbash:

Three beautiful sets of flies dropped on my porch today by my mailman. Thanks to Old Hat, Troutbum2 and Utyer, and thanks for the extras. My trip to Oregon is going to be well stocked :yahoo: I should get Cencalfly's entries tomorrow, so flies should be back in the mail by the end of the week.

OK, all flies are either here or in the mail. I will sort and return as soon as they all arrive.

The only way we keep the story alive is to tell our childern and grandchildren what happened and what it means. I have flown the flag in front of my house every day since. Take time today to remember all those who were lost. Bob Nelson US Army 1970-73

Two great sets of flies in my mail box today. Salmonid's Purple Perils arrived from Texas and fly_fishas Red Ants made it across the Pacific to California. Thanks for the extras :yahoo: Waiting on 4 sets due next Friday.

This is what I get for not reading more of the forum. I don't check out this site very often. I knew tha Chris was recovering from something, but had no idea that it was a Heart Attack. Chris get better soon. Bob

OK, I can't take it any more.... :wallbash: I'll take "N" for Nelson's Caddis

Flies are now in the hands of the US Post Office. Thanks for hosting, sent a few extras.

I'm sure they will be fine. We are the most critical of our own stuff. Thanks for being in the swap :thumbsup:

Wow, that was fast. Address is on the way. I look forward to seeing them. I'll be headed to the post office Tuesday.

John, Got a couple of Rogue River Patterns ready to travel. :scooter: Address Please

Chollo23's beautiful Green Butt Skunk flies arrived today. Half the flies are in the house.

OK, OK, since you brought up Zane Grey, I'll do two Rogue River patterns, a Juicy Bug and my version of the Rogue River Special. For the Rogue these patterns were normally tied on double hooks. Since I don't know everyone's stream regs I'll use single hooks.

Little Yellow Sally (female) flies are in the mail.

Will changed patterns on us and sent some very nice beaded San Juan Worms.

Some mega-nice Mega Prince flies from the forum's newest Swapmeister, John P, arrived today.

Well I feel like an idiot now!

Thought of a due date yet?

John, glad you decided to go ahead with your first swap. I'm in, pattern TBD

Beautiful fly, thanks for being in the swap

If we could only teach the Taliban to Fly Fish, they wouldn't have time to fight.
