I would be very interested...as I do not tie them.

If you just want to buy flies...... check out one of the sponsors (here in calgary no less) http://www.ickyflyworks.ca/
I admit I used his flies in the fly exchange a couple years ago.
I don't tie, no interest in learning to tie, but wanted to take part in the exchange.
Ickyfly works is good people!

Plus I think if you connect through AO there is a discount code too.
Maybe you should see if guys would be interested in doing a fly exchange.
Generally its 12 guys, 12 flies.

Fly exchange.
One guys organizes it.
You get 12 guys to each make 12 flies.
They all send the flies along with a S.A.S.E.
Once you have collected all the flies from the 12 guys, you then put 1 of each fly into the envelopes. So in the end each participant gets 12 flies and send them back their S.A.S.E.
You end up with some pretty cool flies.

The best man to talk to in this regard is KenA07vette. He can guide you thru the process the best - he organized one I participated in.
I am not going to participate, but think you should try it once.
SASE = Self Addressed Stamped Envelope.
Best to throw it into the fishing forum.

Don't think I have any I'd be willing to swap.
I'm pretty attached to my collection and don't aquire what I don't want.
But I will swap cash for flies haha
Or are you talking about the fly exchange that FishingMom is describing?
I have never tried that.

Fly swap = fly exchange, but 'fly swap' is more commonly used.
