Doug Goulding

Thanks Doug…can’t wait to get them!

Have the flies gone out yet Doug? Just wondering. Scott

Hey guys,
sorry about the long delay, I had to go out West to visit my Uncle who has been ill for a few weeks. Flies will be in the mail by Monday afternoon at the latest.

Thanks for another great swap!
Doug Goulding

Flies were mailed this morning. If I mixed up the flies or forgot a pattern, just let me know and I’ll send that pattern(s) out to you for free.

Thanks again guys,
Doug Goulding

I received my flies today! This was a great swap. I’m glad we did two patterns each. Great job to all!!! Thanks for a great swap Doug! Scott

Doug and swappers…these babies finally made it to me on Saturday. This was a fun swap and the whole time I was tying mine I was thinking of being on a small brookie stream way up in the mountains. All the flys look great and look like they would fool any wary broktrout. Thanks for coming up with the idea and hosting Doug.
Special thanks to Panman for sharing his wealth of natural materials with us. The CDC is beautiful!..Jason

The flies arrived last night and I was really impressed with them. Thanks Doug for hosting the swap and to Jason for your kind words about the CDC. I hope you guys can find a use for the CDC and I am elated with Jason’s Adams Variation which he used the gadwall feathers for the wings.
