    John,

    Thanks you. They are flies that have worked well for me. I hate sending folks an untested pattern.

    Guys - flies in from texfly and sjo - they are EXCELLENT - thanks.
    Apologies I haven't had time to put up photos of the flies as I go along - with luck I'll get a chance next week to take and post photos before I send the packs back.
    Cheers - JW

    Alrighty - flies in the mail - some specific msgs:

    - REE: used Priority Mail, as you gave me enough - hopefully you'll get the flies wet this weekend
    - Sancty: in the mail to your apt
    - Feenom: in mail to your apt as well
    - sjo: about to send you a PM in an hr or so to sort out mailing options to europe

    It's a great pack of 18 flies - some sweet small sizes for upcoming river hatches. Thanks to everyone for all the efforts! If I can get around to it I will post pics of all to this thread for the benefit of everyone else!

    Cheers guys - JW

    Flies came in today and they look great. Thanks to our host and all the tiers.
    Looking forward to giving them a try.

    I've been at ceremony for the last 9 days, and returned to find the envelope torn open and an empty fly box. I did find some toe tags in the trash. VEE is leaving for a Woman's Fishing Trip to Oregon this morning and has some really nice looking spinners and cripples in her fly box. I wonder if there's something amiss here.
