Sure did.  Picked them up from my mailbox yesterday evening.  Haven't opened the package yet. I've been down and out.

What are we doing? Passing the virus around with our swap flies? Too much of that  "down and out" stuff going around.

Hang in there, wife and I had the crud ( not Covid ) last month. A week of not good.  
Hope you feel better soon.

Not the covid just my new reality. Some days or string of days are better than others.  Thanks for all the well-wishes.

That looks real good. 

Must note: All these swaps I've been have produced a really good batch of flies for upcoming seasons.  May need to do a Fall season swap.  Once our creeks and rivers get fishable (and I can get around) they'll get a tryout. Also have some still water flies to tryout.   If we (we = my wife and son) have success I'll post pics.

Thanks for joining and all the participants in the various swaps.

Flies should be there by the 15th. Sorry to be down to the wire but I dislocated my finger.

Darrell, don't scare me that way. You posted the same thing here you did on my swap and these aren't due until the 1st. Scared me because I just got mine packaged and labeled to send tomorrow and thought I had plenty of time. I did the H&L Variant plus an extra to go along behind the H&L. Stuck it on the foam for the H&L and hope they stay together. If not James can just throw them in loose and you'll know they're mine.

As for the finger, I told you to get big fish on the reel right away and don't line getting wrapped on a finger when they make a big run.

Saw both of Darrell's posts.  Chalked it up to cut and past.

Your flies have made it to central cal.  Another nice set of fish getters
