Is it too late to join? I can throw some chironomids in the mix if you are still accepting entries

Todrod · #34 06-18-2013, 11:41 AM

Hey drock. Did you receive mine? My wife mailed it a while ago. I felt like a turd when you said all the guys were waiting on me! Imagine how they should feel now...

So I have only recieved flies from 4 people so far. Awesome flies btw. I understand that some people may be busy. I'd like to wrap this thing up and get everyone their flies back. Please try to send them in as soon as you can.

I am in Calgary each week I can participate . I tie a little fly i used up north I called the little green stick , green with goose biots for wings and tail . Or some sort of modified bugger pattern, or make some purple leaches or some thing fairly basic. just let me know and a deadline date please.

Hopefully the organizer will be able to add you. I sounds like not all of the flies have arrived to be shipped back out.

Looking forward to seeing everyone's ties.

kritofr · #40 07-07-2013, 03:16 PM

Good day. Just following up to see if you have received the Gartside leeches? They were sent a week and a half ago.

Got them. Now just waiting on others

Wildcat I got yours too.

drock0802 · #42 07-11-2013, 09:16 AM

Ok this is sad. I have received only about 6 guys flies. Where are the rest. Ill wait two more weeks. If nothing then ill just send back what I got. Last call or if anyone has flies ready to send and wants to be part pm me

Todrod · #43 07-11-2013, 05:58 PM

I say forget the rest. Send what you have and keep the remainder for yourself.

That's not fair for the guys who spent time tying 10 of these. But if the general consensus is to split up the ones I got already and send them then I can do that. Let me know

I'm good with that,

Drsuzuki · #46 07-25-2013, 09:35 PM

I have 12 flys ready to ship, do I need to send more?

Todrod · #47 08-11-2013, 11:53 PM

Any news? I'll be pulling out my ice gear soon...

drock0802 · #48 08-12-2013, 12:50 AM

Ill be sending the ones I got so far tomorrow.
Very disappointed in the long waits and number of people who did not send

Drsuzuki · #49 09-04-2013, 09:19 AM

Good morning Just wondering if you had sent back any flies yet? thanks Kent

trigger7mm · #50 09-04-2013, 09:08 PM

Is there any chance I can still get in with some Copper John's?

Sorry for your loss.

Maybe if there is time trigger7mm can add his copper johns to the swap?

kritofr · #54 10-07-2013, 12:03 AM

Any word with what is going on with the flies?

drock0802 · #55 10-08-2013, 08:50 AM

I'm so sorry guys. It has been a rough few months for me as my best friend passed about a month ago and now my father just passed away and and Im in Toronto now till I'm not too sure when. I really apologize guys as I really wanted to wrap this up right away. I'm not too sure when I'm heading back into Calgary (where the flies are). I really don't know what to do. If you guys can't wait I can send you guys money for your flies instead. Just let me know what the consensus is

Thanks guys for your understanding and again I'm sorry

Todrod · #56 10-12-2013, 03:30 PM

Sorry for your losses. Don't even think about sending money. Deal with your stuff, then with flies later. I only got out fishing once this summer anyways...maybe I can rock the Bow throughout the winter.

Drsuzuki · #57 11-11-2013, 09:59 AM

Just wondering if there is a update? I am sure the others that have participated are also asking the same question.

kritofr · #58 11-11-2013, 08:20 PM

Haven't heard anything besides the organizers last post. It looks he was going through some hard times. Figure he will get back to us when life settles.....

Still looking forward to seeing everyone's flies

kritofr · #59 12-07-2013, 09:18 PM

Anything new to report?

kritofr · #60 12-31-2013, 07:45 AM

Bumping this back into the first page. Sent a pm to the organizer, would greatly appreciate some form of communication to let us know what is going on
