Do you have yours finished?

Why yes indeed, Mr pot stirrer!  :;! — I thought I indicated that with the spreadsheet with the flies —- they are all sorted and ready to send back,
ex - I'm not going to live with you through one more fishing season!
me -There's a season?

Guys, I apologize profusely, but I'm gonna have to bow out on this one. Between working ten hour days and taking care of my mom, I bit off more than I had time to chew. And seems like every weekend, I have some crap comes up. Been dealing with a stopped up septic line this weekend. It just doesn't look like it's gonna happen right now. I am very sorry to keep y'all waiting. Maybe I'll catch y'all on the next one when I have more time. Makes me feel bad, but I don't want to keep anyone waiting any longer. I should have known better than to sign up to start with at this point.

You can color the foam post on the purple haze parachute any color you want with a marking pen. Some times white is hard to see in foam lines. You might want to trim the hackle on that bionic ant and hippie stomper to get them to ride flush in the film. I down sized the hackle on the hippie stomper but it may still be too long for slower runs. I always carry scissors in my vest. You can find videos of all 3 on Youtube and directions on how to trim the hackle. I wish all swaps would go this smooth. I know it can be hard some times to make yourself sit down and tie, but if you can't don't sign up. I always try to tie extras for the swap master and I always try to add a pattern like a couple of you did. It sure sweetens the deal.  The people in the swap make or break the swap. I'm with Don & rbphoto this was a good swap. :cheers

Smoothly run swap bossman.  Great flies everyone.  Enjoy the crappy EHC from me, hope you snag it in some witch hazel like I'll likely do to all your flies.

Agreed —- good stuff. 'c;

Thanks all
