Default Midge Swap

I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in a midge swap. With fall here
in full force, the fishing here in the northeast is shifting to small flies
and, for me, Spring Creeks. I was thinking of 6-8 people each tying enough
flies so that each swapper gets 3 of each pattern, that way we'll be able to
actually fish them without fear of losing our only killer pattern. Anyone
interested? I'll host the thing....

If the deadline is mid-November or later, I'd be interested.

How could I resist a line like that? If there's room I'd be a happy
participant. I'm liking midges more and more lately, and it would be nice
to see what others are fishing.

Cheers,
Bill

I'm in if the flies can be delivered before the San Juan Clave.


Hmmm. For the good of the swap, I'd be willing to drop out if Willi's in. I
can't tie much in the next few weeks, and Willi, from what I've heard, ties a
helluva lot better fly than I could hope to at this stage in my tying.

I'd like to be in if there's still room.

So far I count 5 people including me. If its not to soon, we could set the
deadline for the middle of October. Most of the midges I tie only take a few
minutes a piece, so it won't b ea problem for me to sit down for an hour
this week and whip them up. Is this OK for you guys?

Sounds great. I'll keep my eyes open for details.
