I'll keep the important info in the top post to keep things easy. The list will be there along with the dates etc. When you see your name on the list, you are in, if you could send me an email to w_patton@yahoo.com, I'll send back my snail mail address once we get going.

Hello!
I'd be interested in joining the swap, too. I'll think about what I want to tie, and get back to you soon--so I guess I'm a TBD too. Thanks for organizing,
Mike
-
Ill be in and I will be tying a crawdad pattern.
-
Ok All, Half way to 10 . . 5 more poeple needed!!
-wayne
-
I'll play. How about a frog popper? Any objections to a floating fly?
Brad
-
I find smallies love the white and pearl zonker, I'll play.

No Problem Kaboom1/Brad, if a smallie will hit, then it's good to go!
-
I'll play, thought about giving up on swaps for awhile but hard to say no to this one. Fly TBD
-
I would like to jump in. How about a single fold popper.

we need one more ???? I think the tying deadline should be about May 30 as planned. If we dont get the 10th person be Friday 4/29, we'll go with 9 . .
-wayne
-
I would like to join in if there still is an open spot.
I would like to offer up a nice size 1 Polarfiber Baitfish for the swap--I promise you will like it.
Thanks
-
I think I'll tie a deer hair crawdad. I noticed that parrotheadcbr is tying a crawdad, too, but there are a million different versions, so I'm hoping this is OK.
Mike

Shmang: you are in!
Folks that rounds out the 10, let the tying begin!
Flies due to me May 30!
All further updates for status and such from me will be in the first post which I'll edit to keep updated. That will make finding info/status easy for you all. If you all would email me at w_patton@yahoo.com, I will send out a mass email with my snailmail address for the flies. I would prefer not to post it on here.

Hey guys, My Flies will go out this week. I'm nursing a sore back so I can't sit to long at the desk. The flies are about done so I guessing about the 1st or 2nd. I just had back surgery 2 years ago on the 28th of May. I guess I hit another 100,000 miles already. Sorry for the delay.

I have 1/2 the flies in. I met Antron Midge at the local Barnes & Noble to get his flies last night. He and I live about 20 minutes apart.
-wayne
-
We are getting close. 2 more arrived today from Micropteris & Shmang. Only 3 more to go!
-wayne
-
Ok all . . . Check your email.
I have 8 sets of flies in counting my own. I would like to wrap this up. Before I post who I am missing flies from, I would like to rectify it via email in case it's a USPS problem or something like that and not the tiers fault.
I sent email to the two missing folks. Please let me know ASAP!
-wayne
-
Wayne,
Mine were mailed they should be there by now I hope.
Seege
-
Fireman, your are here. The 2 missing ones had a personal email sent from me in addition to the group email. You didnt get a 2nd email did you ?
-wayne
-
Ya I got the second email. But I figured as much since I was on the tardy list. Sorry guys for holding up the swap.
Seege
-
Ok All . . . I am planning on getting the flies sorted tonight and should be able to get them in the mail Tomorrow. Looks like there were 9 tiers who provided flies, unless the last one shows up today.
-wayne
