Super Bowl Swap

stephenjay · February 6, 2006, 5:20pm

I am hesitant to post here only because I cannot be part of the swap. Having said that, I am surprised no one is doing a black and gold Crazy Charlie in honour of the Steelers backup QB. Just a thought…

Flytyr45, welcome to the swap.

We’re full.

Love that crazy charlie idea!

I’m going to be mostly away from the computer from Monday - Friday next week but if you should mail your flies, don’t worry. Someone will be here to receive them and get them in from the cold.

But there’s still LOTS of time. Just a FYI.

Got my flies tied. All I need now is the motivation to do the tags and mail the flies.

Diane · February 13, 2006, 6:05am

Here’s some motivation:

I received gqualls bluegill busters in the mail today. They look perfect for summertime panfish pestering around here. Thanks, gquall for the special enclosures. I’ll be sure to put them to good use all season.

My blue and green stimultors are done, and will be out the door on Monday. Never made stimulators in this color scheme before, but they look like they could be killers. The steelers sure ate them up – maybe that’s good karma.

Thank you very much sunskyhooksnwater. Stimulators are a favorite of mine. A good fly to tie went you want to tie something, but not sure what.

Flies will be sent on Wednesday, Diane, along with a couple extra goodies that I owe you.

Flies were put in the mail this morning. Looks like everyone is getting theirs done early. Looking forward to getting them back.

Diane · February 23, 2006, 3:38pm

I just received ridgeliner’s gurglepops. Wait till you see them.

Ridgeliner… thanks for the gurgles. I’m going to take mine out to Taughannock Park on the west shore of Cayuga Lake and cast out to the bass just like you suggested. Just as soon as it warms up a bit!

Got to get my butt in gear!

don’t want to be that “slacker guy”

Diane · February 24, 2006, 1:58am

That’s the beautiful thing about this swap. There are no “slacker guys.” There’s on time and there’s “you missed the boat.” February’s a short month, too!

lee_s · February 24, 2006, 4:28am

DANG Diane!
Went into a panic…almost. Feb is short…but March will save some of us.
Got the shopping done today. Now the tying.
