I just got in contact with a fly fishing club in Argentina. They look very interested, so I'm thinking at least 20 people might join this swap. Still waiting for reply from Chile and Mexico.

Hey Skunked, What's our latest count? We should be getting up there now? 35-40?

I think their have been some real good points made on this swap. I for one would like to see what G.B.W.R. forwards ass to rules. Then we can decide how we bad we should beat the old record by. I dont think we should rush this, as Will said time to acheive this is an important factor.

I agree 100%

If this gets legs, you can count me in. I'd prefer 25 each of 4 different flies.

I finally got an email from guinness today, here it is

 

Thank you for sending us the details of your recent record proposal for 'Largest

Fly Swap'. We are afraid to say that we are unable to accept this as a Guinness

World Record.

 

We receive over 60,000 enquiries a year from which only a small proportion are

approved by our experienced researchers to establish new categories. These are

not 'made up' to suit an individual proposal, but rather 'evolve' as a result of

international competition in a field, which naturally accommodates superlatives

of the sort that we are interested in. We think you will appreciate that we are

bound to favour those that reflect the greatest interest.

 

 

We appreciate that this may be disappointing to you. We are always keen to hear

from people who wish to set a Guinness World Record. If you should need any

advice regarding record breaking in the future, please do not hesitate to

contact us, quoting the above membership number.

 

Once again thank you for your interest in Guinness World Records.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Amanda Sprague

Records Research Services

 

 

Thanks to all who had the balls to join this swap, on a side note though I think we set a record for amount of posts to a swap w/out there ever having the swap

Kicked in the teeth by a bunch of retards! I thought for sure that this would be a great thing. You should contact them back and try again. I have found that some times things take more than one attempt. Its up to you if you decide to drop it at least give them hell for me too!

in the first place,just wanted the flys.

If Guiness isn't big enough to have us, we might as well go on on our own. Then we will be world famous amongst us. That's okay with me too. Let's go on with the Swap!
