I hate to ask... but what day did you send out the packages on exactly?

I ship things around the city all the time and I have never had a package take more then 3 or on very rare occasion 4 business days within the city.

Still nothing here...

Jeff can you please check to see if they have been returned to you due to insufficient postage?

Cheers..

I've now had a chance to look over them all. Wow. I'm so glad I don't have to pick a favourite! They're all so interesting and nicely done. I'm almost giddy (almost).

Thanks for hosting the swap, Jeff. It was totally worth the little bump in the road.

Heya JTS...

Can you please take a look see if any packages where returned to you from Insufficient postage?? I would really appreciate it.

I see alot of people have received their flies on the 23rd or 26th.. I was away the last 10 days camping up at pigeon lake, and upon returning I still do not have anything in the mail execpt bills and junk mail.

Anyone else not get a package yet?

Cheers,

I do have some extras that were sent to me to donate. I'm not sure what is all in there, as I didn't open the envelope that Jeff had written "Extras" on. I'm guessing there are around ten flies, but I could be wrong.

In the event anyone's flies do not arrive, I'll divide up the extras and send them out to the guys that didn't get theirs. If there are two of you, that probably means you'd get five each, or something like that. I may add a few extras, since I'm not fishing right now anyway (fishing=smoking, and I'm on my eleventh day of no ciggies . . . I WILL do it this time!).

The people who participated in the swap obviously come first.

Got home today, and checked the mail...

Envelope arrived today!! No idea on why it was so tardy, but I am just glad to have received the flies.

Looks good so far.. cant wait to fling a couple out and take a few monsters.

Anyone else not get their bugs? I'll split up the extras (which I still have in my possession) and send 'em out. If they haven' arrived yet, I think it is safe to say they won't

I find this a pretty cool way of doing things. Keep me updated if any of you plan on doing this again!


In the mean time I'll be tying some flies!
