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.

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!
Andy

I’d rather be fishin’!!

7

yes micropteris, its done. not enough people signed up and it was kind of a waste. i think this one will be better.

8

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.

9

bumpin it up

10

12

I will try this one, with Pete Cooper’s
variation of a Clouser “Pete’s Perfection”

13

kid,

how about an update on this swap? how many are we tying? still the same due date?

Norm :slight_smile:

14

sorry bout that. I would say that nothing has really changed. just tie one fly for each person and the same january 15 deadline.

15

Jeff, I put my flies in the mail today.

I wish you everlasting flies and tight lines.

16

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!!

Andy

As featured in Trout Fisherman, UK, Jan 2005! I’d still rather be fishin’!!

Hello again. I am trying a new mylar body style with Kukonen’s smelt. I am going to try and finish them tonight and get them in the mail in the next couple of days to get them in on time. Sorry if they arrive a little late
