Looks like the 2 sets that I still am missing are 101 HoosierPerching and ghosttown.  A-bomb I just checked on your return envelope and you have your real name on there not A-bomb so you are set there.  I work all weekend so Monday afternoon will be the final date.  When I get home from work on Monday afternoon I am going to take the packages to the post office and they will be headed back everyones way.  I guess I can just put 2 of everyones originals back in with their new flies when I send them back.  I'm hoping that the 2 other sets show up by Monday and we can get a full swap.

Yes, I PM'd both guys and got a response from one of them saying that he did not have time to tie them up, no response from the other.  I have to work tomorrow until the afternoon.  Flies will be in the mail Tuesday.  I'm looking forward to trying them out this week.  Had to work all weekend but I will be out every day this week except Thursday.

Ok, I just got back from the post office drop box.  All flies are divided up, packaged up and ready to be sent back.  I put 2 of everyones flies that you tied up back in with the others for the 2 who did not join.  Thanks to everyone who joined and participated.  This was my 1st time running a fly swap so I hope that everything goes smooth.  If anyone has any problems let me know.  Thanks again.

I used to get excited about a 20 inch bass until I caught my first 40 inch dolphin.

I decided not to fish tonight after work and think I will take the wife out to dinner.  I will be up extra early in the morning thought since it is my day off.  I'll be tying some flies after dinner and that may be the last of the ice flies I tie for the season.  Next time I tie a fly it will probably be for the spring steelhead run.  I will think about doing one next year maybe in late november or early december before we have ice.  The turnout wasnt as good as I thought it would be.  I think all of the flies in the swap will catch fish though.
