Snakeyes Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 I am soooo sorry but I have to bail out of the fly swap. I have just hit with some real life stuff today that will take some time to sort out. I really wanted to be apart of this swap. Again guys I am so sorry. I hope I did not let anyone down. I will be back as soon as I can and hope to be apart of the next one. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveC Posted June 8, 2013 Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Is someone coordinating this? I would assume we would package our ten flys and include a self addressed stamped envelope for the return and send it to whoever coordinates? Can we set a date to have this done and sent by? I know Big Dog is going on holidays so....just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron4blues Posted June 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2013 Send you flies to me and I'll do the sorting and co-ordinating. Include a return envelope with return postage. My address is: Ron Ferguson 206-2547 King St E Hamilton, ON, L8K 1Y1 Lets say June 21st to have them in my mailbox? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnfshn Posted June 16, 2013 Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 I will get my flies out Monday - baby perch pattern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron4blues Posted June 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2013 Don't forget to provide a return envelope big and strong enough for distribution. I don't know yet how large everyone's contributions are, but the dragonfly nymphs I have are about 1 1/2" and I'm sure some will be bigger. I'll be using craft foam sheets to organize them, so each envelope should be 5"x8" or thereabout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogman Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Anyone else having trouble with the post office and return shipping? They don't want to let me buy return shipping citing something about weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ron4blues Posted June 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 They shouldn't be giving any problems. The return weight will be more or less the same as the outbound weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries. Work and family come first. We'll probably do this again, so there'll be other chances. Hope you at least get a chance to wet a line.

The guy lives right on lake ontario in a mansion XD So if I ask politely I should be able to fish any time I get a break. But he is getting some nice hardwood flooring throughout...
