12 people in the swap.
Due date of April 25th (this means the flies have been mailed in and received previous to this date not on this date).
Pick a trout fly, dry, nymph, streamer, whatever as long as It's not some standard EHC, Wooly Bugger, Things along that line, and tie a dozen of them.
Pm Dave, get his address and mail them to him. He'll receive them and in turn mail us each one of each fly each person tied. Including one of your own I guess, unless everyone ties just 11 flies.
I don't know if Dave had other rules besides these... Dave?

EDIT:
there are 12 ppl ...... tie 11 flies. You will get one of each of the other tyers back (not one of your own). Also, they need to be in by 4/20. I figure the guys from the area can get together at the shop or at the bar or whatever and talk about the flies they tied, local stuff in the news, their latest sexual conquests or whatever they want. Ill grab all of the flies for the outa town ppl, or the ppl who dont want to be at the fly fiesta (on 4/23 at a location to be named) and mail them out. If you want them mailed out you will have to give me postage to mail them back and a self addressed envelope. Also if you are going to mail them in put them in an altoids tin or something so they do not get crushed in the mail. I will use whatever you package them in to send me to send them back
Any questions, ask. There is a list of all of the tyers in on the swap on page 5

okay, i would like to join in if there's room...and what is EHC? Elk Haired Caddis. The idea behind this swap is to tie flies that you cannot just walk into a shop anywhere and purchase. Hopefully seeing unique flies will give ideas to create or improve a fly of your own! The flies do not have to be an original invention, but should be a unique pattern. Hope this helps, and i will add you to the list

I thought there was a no egg rule, but i want some of justin's floating eggs. Well I will assume that Justin would not tie something like an egg hook for a swap.... I would hope eh. What with his new found stash of dry fly hackles he has so recently acquired !
