Any update on this swap? Have the 2 you are waiting on been sent?

 

[flyfishermanj]

No they haven't been sent to my knowledge, I have tried to contact without success and will proceed in processing the swap without the last two. All flies should be in route by Friday to those who have sent in flies.

[delta_dog]

Thanks for all you efforts flyfishermanj. Im just glad i'll be able to use the flies THIS trout season. lol

 

[Phish_On]

Thanks for all the effort you put in J.

 

[FrequentTyer]

Yes, a big thanks Flyfishermanj for all you do to make these swaps as good as they are! It is a shame that guys sign up and don't follow through, but life has ways of making that happen.
Please do whatever you think is best with my extras.

[flyfishermanj]

I would like to Thank all those who were in the swap and the kind words. It really isn't too much trouble and for some odd reason I enjoy it.
Also, all flies are in the mail, barring any over the 3 oz limit that might be shipped back to me. Didn't realize until I had most of the packages in the drop box that there was a sticker saying all packages over the weight limit will not be shipped do to security reasons. So I called the Post Office and explained what I did, to which I was told they would shipped it back to me if it was over the weight limit??? Anywho, all the ones that I took to the Post Office were under the limit, so I think it is safe to say that they all were.
Finally, sniper, quill and frequent. you will have an extra fly in with yours from the Soft-Hackle Swap.

[quillfly]

[lv2nymph]
