I'm Down...

[Daryle Holmstrom]

Since tubies are cheap I'll tie two dozen, a dozen of each pattern, need things to do since I retired, what you got in mind, herring, shrimp, dace, lance, smelt?

Just want to break in the new nor vise tube jaws.

Daryle

PS And it's fun to do these swaps

Roger

[ibn]

I'm in, tying up a modified beach shock and awe tube. I'll even do the swapmeistering.

[Anyfish]

I will join in as well. I am new to the tube world, so I will see what I come up with.

[Daryle Holmstrom]

Half done with my shrimp thingy, next one will be the minnow sequin sorta like Rogers, We won't have a repeat.

Daryle

[ibn]

I just realized I will be heading to the bahamas around the due date, unless someone else wants to be the swapmeister I wont be able to mail them out until the end of May.

[bhudda]

Ok ill be the meistro then. lets keep the date as ill be bored in may and i will need some flies:)

[yuhina]

I am in, Will tie some shock and awe rabbit stripers...

[Charlie Erdman]

If ya got room for one more, count me in.

[bhudda]

hey charlie, "got any" :), ofcourse yuhina!

[Anyfish]

Some items have come up, so it looks like I had better pull my name before we even get started. Sorry guys.

[Daryle Holmstrom]

I'm tying one dozen of each. Already two patterns, do I dare do a photo?

Daryle

[Daryle Holmstrom]

Here are my two offerings.

Daryle

[Roger Stephens]

Bhudda:

I have tied 7 S.T. Clouser Minnow flies(2 for you and 1 for other participants) and will mail them to you the first part of next week. I have included a write-up of materials and how to use the sequin.

Thanks for being the swap meister.

Roger

[bhudda]

thanks guys for the updates, i think we should just keep this at 6 since its such an advanced technique you know:) i see why others shy away.. look forward to the patterns to come and dont forget- DONT SEND HOOKS. THNKS jeffrey

[yuhina]

Thanks for the update, Jeffrey.

I will sent my flies out this week too. :beer2:

Yuhina.

[Daryle Holmstrom]

Sending mine tomorrow,

Daryle

[Roger Stephens]

Bhudda:

Just curious. Why don't you want hooks included?

Roger

[bhudda]

Roger, i really have no clue other then i dont know:) i was thinking it was gonna be mass confusion with a dozen tiers and 144 tubes w/ 144 hooks. that never happened, so if you wanna send some hooks fellas, by all means ,send some hooks. bhudda

[Roger Stephens]

Bhudda:

Thanks for the reply! The hooks for my pattern are held onto the tube with a plastic sleeve so I'll send hooks with them.

Roger

[bhudda]

i hope everybody includes the junction tubing.
bhudda

[Daryle Holmstrom]

I didn't include some for the clouser I'll send a chunk If you want. Was leaving it to the tiers to cut the tube to their liking.

Daryle

[bhudda]

Daryle-all good, your right, we can cut to length our own .

[Charlie Erdman]

will seven flies be enough for everyone with an extra for you bhudda? and you got any?

[bhudda]

haaha, sounds good Charlie, and not when im on the eastside:) look forward to the ties.

[bhudda]

ive received a few packages so far,, all great patterns, ideas . need a few more to complete the deal and ill be sending them out. lates bhudda

[Ringlee]

I will have mine done in the next few days.

[ibn]

Mine are tied, just have the daunting task of getting off my ass to the post office.

[Charlie Erdman]

mine will go out in monday's mail

[Ringlee]

In the mail as of today. Sorry for the delay and last minute!

[bhudda]

thanks ringlee, i havent recieved Ibn's or charlie's, when i get them ill send them out. thanks jeffrey

[ibn]

Hrm, I sent mine out over a week ago before I left for the Bahamas, have they shown up yet?

[bhudda]

Ibn, i havent seen them yet but ill see if there in todays mail. hey charlie? got some? flies that is:)
bhudda

[bhudda]

i havent seen the flies in the mail yet from Ibn and Charlie. probably a post office screw up or something. gonna wait till end of week and send the flies i have out and will return the others that were extra. sorry guys it didnt pan out right, there always more swaps:)
bhudda

[ibn]

Dammm, that blows, I sent them out over 3 weeks ago. I've only had problems with the post office one time in my life, I think that was 20+ years ago. :mad:

[yuhina]

Sorry to hear that... It happens...

[Daryle Holmstrom]

OK, almost a month overdue, twenty lashes
