Hey Drifter,
How about for the next fly swap we have a terrestrial swap? It won't be long before Summer is upon us! Maybe I'll be able to get in the next one (if my boat is done by then!).

Richard,
With the Summer months approaching, a Terrestrial Swap would be an excellent idea.
If your asking me to run it, I don't think I'll have the time. Unfortunately, my Summer will be pretty busy between Little League Bball, and numerous fishing trips. I would encourage one of you all to pursue it. I'll offer any advice. My next Swap will probably be in November or December. A millineum Swap if you will. I'll probably shoot for 2,000 entries http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/wink.gif

I'll host the next swap if someone will volunteer to scan the photos for me.
Re; Millenium swap. I certainly hope you aren't expecting us to tie 2000 flies http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/smile.gif
At the rate I tie, I'd get through by 2100 http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/frown.gif
Hmmm.... I guess youre right, we'll just stick with 20. http://www.georgia-outdoors.com/ubbngto/wink.gif

(The Drifter proposes a virtual moment of silence for Joe D.)
Seems Billy Martin descended from heaven one day to discuss with Joe DiMaggio the possibility of baseball being played in heaven. Billy told Joe he had good news and bad news. Billy said the good news is that baseball games are indeed played in heaven. "The bad news Joe.... Your starting tommorrow!" RIP Joe DiMaggio 1914-1999
On another note:
KB,
Anyone with a digital camera can photograph the entries. Michael Lim graciously did so for our first Swap. I may even have a digital camera by then.
Another alternative is to photograph them yourself (probably need a macro lens) and have them developed by Wolf Photo. They will scan them and email to you, or give them to you on a floppy.
Anyhow, If you want to host a Terrestrial Swap, count me in.

I can take photos of the flies like I did for the first swap. That's if I can get away with tying another really easy pattern.
NetBoy
Michale after the great job you did with the photos for the first swap I vote you get to tie anything you want.
Sounds like a deal. I guess I'll get in touch with you Netboy when it gets closer to that time.
I'll start workin' on the page tonite.
