River fly swap
 
So I'm getting the itch for another fly swap, so I figured I would host the next one. The only theme for this swap is river flies. Doesn't matter if you tie a nymph or a dry, so long as it is a good producer on rivers. So if we give everyone involved a month and finish up on May 15 should be enough time. I have been involved in a couple swaps now and have got some awesome patterns from them!!!

Alright, So if everyone can post what fly they're tying and we'll try not to get doubles. For those that haven't done a swap yet, if you tie 12 flies of your pattern and send them to me, I will split them up and send you one of everyone's fly. Please include a self addressed stamped envelope for me to mail them back to you in. The deadline is May 15 so please start tying soon, because it sneaks up really fast and then everyone is left waiting for a couple people. I will pm all of you my address. If you have any questions, let me know. Thanks and I'm excited to see everyone's flies!

kritofr 04-16-2013 05:25 PM

I will tie the Slump Buster.

pipercub17 04-16-2013 11:56 PM

Mine are finished and ready to be shipped please pm your address and I can get them to you

cmcclung 04-19-2013 09:56 AM

Ok, so we are all set I think. I have pm'd everyone my address. If you did not receive my address let me know. Also please do not forget to include a self addressed stamped envelope so I can send your flies back to you. Looks like a couple guys are already done which is great!!! Thanks and I look forward to seeing everyone's flies.

mattpreat 04-21-2013 12:38 PM

Hey guys, hate to do this but I don't know if I will have enough time for this swap. If anybody wanted to join but couldn't because it filled up you can take my spot. If nobody wants to take my place I will still tie something up for it instead of just leaving. Sorry, wish I could stick around and participate in this one but just don't know if I have the time.

May 15 deadline reminder!
 
hey just a heads up and a reminder to everyone in this fly swap that the deadline is May 15. Which means you all should have them in the mail next week sometime. So if you haven't started, get on it! I only have mine and two other guys in so far. Sorry to be stern, but I'm in another swap right now that is 6 weeks over due and we haven't got anything yet. If we all finish up by the deadline, everyone gets the flies without waiting. Thanks and look forward to seeing everything.

P.S. The ones I have so far look awesome.

Pikecrazed 05-06-2013 08:15 AM

Who's got theirs in so far mine will be sent today
