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.) -- TL, Tim ------------------------ http://css.sbcma.com/timj |

I can send my contributions out via regular mail, and we can work out how to get my recieved ones back to me later. --riverman |

Cuttin' it kinda close to the infamous New Year Swap aren't you? 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. -- TL, Tim http://css.sbcma.com/timj |

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. bruce h "Tim J." wrote in message news:S5yhd.556218$8_6.509961@attbi_s04... Hooked wrote: Tim J. wrote...

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.... Wayne P wrote: I am interested. I'll watch the thread and see what happens . . . 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. -- TL, Tim http://css.sbcma.com/timj |
