Cormorants are on their way via USPS and you should see them on Friday. I'm going to try and PM you to see if I can get through.

Buggers went out today.

im finishing up fly 2 , usually im ahead of the game but was waiting for my fly box to come back as i was in another swap on another forum.
fly 2 is a streamer pattern . kinda like a shad . white and purple fuzzy fiber tied in and then folded back over it self.

Flys are on there way .

So I am missing flies from midkiff1, harrington, and dpeck21. There are a couple of mail-days left however, so there will not be a man-hunt until after Tuesday :-) I will send these folks friendly reminders privately.

only one i did not send a pm to was middkiff1 and i do belie it is probably rmidkiff1. sent a memo to Harrington and dpeck21 hope all is good there way .

Yeah, rmidkiff pm keeps coming back as an unknown user. So, I'm thinking he is out.

PM from dpeck21

Sorry for the late resposne, my flies are going to be late, there appears to have been a problem with my delivery. I live on an Air Force Base and they handle the mail, so naturally its constantly FUBAR. I'm retying some of the same fly and mailing them out priority ASAP through the post office off-base.

Gentlemen,
I have to share something with you.  In past swaps, I tied a version of egg pattern which has been very succesful for us out here on our winter Steelhead.  Today I manged my personal best Steelhead on one of these tied on a size 8 hook.  He was a beautiful fish between 42"-44" in full war paint.  I didn't have the camera today (of course), but if you've received one in previous swaps and so a liitle Steelhead fishing, give it a shot, it won't disappoint.  I'm not sure why I've gone away from them in favor of the jigs I tie, but I might just have to re-visit these little fish slayers.
Looking forward to seeing the variety in this swap.
JustDave

Have you heard from harrington ?

so we should still have 12 different fly's coming back to us .

No word from Harrington, and rmidkiff1. And we'll give dpeck21 a few days for his flies to arrive! That leaves a total of eight participants. Three of you guys submitted two flies, so unless one of the others suddenly comes through, with eight entries there should be eleven flies coming back to everyone. While we give dpeck21's flies time to get here, I can bust out a dozen of something or another. I will get pictures up ASAP (but be patient. I've had trouble uploading, but have an idea).

We can wait for a service man .He at least responded to the pm so he knows there do .

upload the picture to a web host . and then either do a html code [img] insert url to pic /img with the [ ] around /img to close it .
i just drag and drop a image but you need to use add reply not quick reply or it wont work .

Good news! Harrington has sent me a message that he will be dropping his flies in the mail ASAP! So that makes a total of nine participants, twelve flies. Photos coming soon!
