Looks like Spider could step in.

Shouldn't have committed lads if you can't meet the deadline. Other members could have taken part. Embarassed  Evil or Very Mad

This really doesn't make any sense to me as I was making a general comment about ALL who have not sent their flies to tack4, who has put a lot of effort in to organise this swap, and DEFINITELY was not QUOTE " havn a go " UNQUOTE at anyone! Confused
wayne

Lads chill, swaps are fun...
tack4

chris  i honestly dont think AMC had any intention of getting at anyone it was a general statement as he like a few others had managed the task  quickly

i have posted a couple of times re reminders and sent my address by email to all

intially there was a big interest in the swap and i recived AMC's, Harry G's beatnicks and fossili fishes all really quickly but like almost all swaps the initial enthusiasim fades and delays occur


still no sign wayne of yours hope it is something to xmas backlog

happy and quick tying to all asap

wayne dou you as forum host want to contact spider????
spider

Who all else is still to send them? Chris is in Holland so has dropped out and been replaced by Phil.

What is a flyswap?
Beatnik69

Someone is the Co-ordinator (in this case tack4). It is decided how many will be in the swap - say ten. Everyone then ties 9 files (one for each other person taking part) and posts them to the co-ordinator who then sends a fly from each other person back to you. In this case we have tied up a fly we feel we've had success with in the season. At other times everyone will tie the same fly so that you can see how other people tie a particular pattern and what variations there are.

If I've made any mistakes here please correct me. Smile

You need to tie ten flies usually,(if you have ten tying) then you get your own back also Very Happy
