I almost let a piece of roffian history and lore go by unnoticed. Every
year in the August/September time frame, Joe Fleischman used to host the
Dog Days Fly Swap. In 2003 I picked up the torch and proudly carried it
forth in the prescribed manner. In 2004, I brain-farted and forgot all
about it. BUT IT'S NEVER TOO LATE FOR REDEMPTION! Maybe. . .

I'd be happy to again host this fly swap of flies that people found
particularly successful in the hot days of summer if there is any
interest. I figure the U.S. election is all but done and youse guys will
need something else to bitch about, so it may as well be my hosting
skills <G>.

If you're interested respond to this or let me know via email ( kpos3wt
at comcast dot net ). I want to limit this swap to twenty people so as
not to be overwhelming for anyone (including me.)

It's up to you, Don. If you have a problem with the swap timeline (yet to be
determined), don't sign up. I figure this swap will be done by the end of this
month, and the Great Fly Swap (*if* anyone picks up the vacancy left by Frank
and Joe - again, yet to be determined) doesn't even begin signup until January
1.

Not everyone will want to tie for both and some won't tie for the GFS because of
the numbers involved. Given that enough interest is shown, I'll tie for both
either way.

If any of you want to come to the San Juan Jan 15-18 I'll have flies for
you. Not just any flies but flies that have worked intermittently for years
: -)

I will be busy tying those flies in my spare time. Otherwise I'd join the
swap too.

Tim,

I share Wayne's perspective on this one. I wont be able to start doing
anything until after the 15th and it also depends on the number of flies
etc....

If the interest is out there, the sign-up will probably continue for another
week or until we reach the max of 20 tyers, whichever comes first. So far we
have 5 counting the two of you. The deadline will probably be around the end of
the month, mainly because Thanksgiving will do away with about 5 days or so.

Once a pattern has been responsible for several fish in a short stretch, the
fly fisher will keep using it but I can guarantee it'll only work
intermittently from then on on that river : -)

I have a couple patterns that may be a *little* better than that....

IF there's only 10 of us, I suggest we tie two different flies, 10 of each,
for the variety.

Okay - that makes ten, so SWAP-ON. The tyers that already signed on can
start tying since you know you'll need to tie at least ten. Since, as
Don mentioned, we're close to the holidays and another swap, I will
leave the count at one fly per participant. So if the count stays at
ten, you'll need to tie ten of whatever fly you want. Hopefully a few
more people will come forward to join. Again, the theme of the swap is
"Dog Days" so they would be flies you find successful in the warm days
of summer.

I'll leave the signup open through the weekend and give everyone the
final count on Monday. I'll need all of your email addresses and the
patterns you'll be tying, so send me an email to kpos3wt at comcast dot
net. We'll follow the general rules Stan Gula wrote up:
http://gula.org/roffswaps/faq.html . Tony - please send your friend's
name, email address, and pattern he'll be tying. If it's okay with both
of you, it might be better for us to post one package to and from the
swap, due to international postage costs.

This is going to be fun!

No, I KNOW I did not send that empty post! I've seen these from other folks,
too. What's up with that??

Anyway, now that I'm here...how long do we have to get them in the mail,
Tim? I'm flying to Nairobi and then on to Zanzibar on Saturday morning for a
week. If you need them to arrive before the first week in January, I'll tie
them all up tonight and send them from Nairobi over the weekend. Otherwise,
I'll send them at the end of the month in the monthly mail.

I think the deadline for receiving the flies will be somewhere around
12/10. That way it'll be just like Christmas when everyone gets them.
:) Since I won't have a final count of tyers until Monday, you may want
to tie up a few extra. If need be, I can always make up the slack by
tying a few extra of something. Do you still have my mailing address for
the office? I'm planning on giving it to everyone else in my Monday
post.

I'll be online through the week: the Nairobi Hilton has in-room internet. I
might even send out a few requests for savings account numbers, so I can
deposit the millions I have access to from the late Congolese dicatator.

I'll tie up about 15 tonight, and take them to Nairobi and mail them from
there next week. I'll get your address online.
