    We have had a few casualties this year. One of the great things about this swap is there is no pressure on participating. People can come and go even when the swap is organized for the year. I would miss participating myself. I've been in the swap for, I'm not sure how many, years. We also don't worry about early or late flies as eventually they get in and sent out.

    I think I am the last host designated for this year. Is there anyone participating who has not posted or are there volunteers to host the rest of the year? If you think you are designated for a remaining month please let us know.

    I have not hosted yet, I think originally I was supposed to do October or November.

    Want me to take September? I have the fly picked out.

    Sorry for being Tardy on this one. Luckily for everyone my flies are done should be in the mail Monday afternoon. They are simple but effective. My late father's favorite. Grey hackle fly.
