XXXXX THIS SWAP IS MAILED XXXX

Hello all this is Hoboflyfisher or the Hobo to many fellow tier’s. I’m hosting my first swap on this board. I have been involved for many years in fly swapping and have flies from many different lands. What a great hobby.
Top water…Warm water Swap.
Any kind of Top water Fly used for Warm water fly fishing.
Lets say we try for 12 tier’s including myself. Tie (1) fly for each tier, which equals a total of (11) flies.
Send your flies in a crush proof box, big enough to hold your flies in and getting flies back in. Also send a self addressed envelope with enough postage to send back to you with your new box of flies enclosed. Please do not use metered postage strips.
Sign-up deadline will be Oct.15 Th with all flies due to me on or before Nov.15 Th.
I hope we have fun and enjoy ourselves in this swap.

Now I know many are a bit burned out from all the recent swaps, but this swap is a good reason to restock your Warm Water fly box. So join up with some good tier’s and mostly enjoy and share your creativity.
