I would like to get in on this one with my version of the crease fly.
I also need to know what the deadline to get the flies in is.

I wish you everlasting flies and tight lines.

What is the new due date ?

my fault. the new due date is january 15.
-
Does this mean that the swap I signed up for last time is dead? I haven't been online in a while and I haven't seen it. I would be willing to sign onto this one. I don't know what pattern yet.

Count me in on this one.... will be tying a sandeel-type fly that fish in the UK find hard to resist!

I'd rather be fishin'!!
-
yes micropteris, its done. not enough people signed up and it was kind of a waste. i think this one will be better.
-
I'd like to get in on it if there is still room. I think I'll tie a Prince of Tides. I'll check back and see if I made the list.
-
-
OK. I'll join in with a Joe Brooks Blonde pattern.Not sure of color right now.

I will try this one, with Pete Cooper's
variation of a Clouser "Pete's Perfection"
-
kid,
how about an update on this swap? how many are we tying? still the same due date?
------------------
Norm :)
-
sorry bout that. I would say that nothing has really changed. just tie one fly for each person and the same january 15 deadline.
-
Jeff, I put my flies in the mail today.
------------------
I wish you everlasting flies and tight lines.
-
Afraid I am pulling out of this swap due to work commitments. I would never make the deadline. Thanks for taking the time to organize this one Jeff and I am truly sorry to let you all down at the last minute.
Iwan.

Jeff,
My flies went in the mail today! Because it's air-mail, i may miss the deadline but the flies are en-route. Should be with you within a few days of the deadline. Sorry!!

My flies are in the mail. May be a few days late. I was out of town and forgot to mail them before I left.
-
what does everyone think, wait a few more days then send them out, even if i dont have the last set of flies.
-
Jeff,
Give the kid a few more days.... then send em out! Am off to Cuba in less than 3 weeks, wanna see what ammunition i got for the local prey!
Thanks again for organising this swap, mate!!

i've got all of the flies. give me a couple days, because if you haven't noticed the northeast has about 4 feet of snow on the ground, making it tough to get out.
-
Tks for hosting - got my flies Saturday. They're great!
