First HUSF Fly Swap

Well this is my first time hosting a fly swap so dont kill me if i do something wrong!

Anyway, I'll try to make this as easy as possible so everything can go smoothly. There wont be a theme and you can tie any fly you want. This isn't a competition or anything and we're doing it for fun and to improve tying skills.

Ok, here come the rules.

1. Sign up deadline is February 21, 2007
2. Flies must be sent to me by March 7, 2007
3. You must tie your own flies.
4. Any type of fly is allowed
5. Tie two flies for each person in the swap (including yourself). If we get 10 or more participants, the number of flies to tie per person will be reduced to one.
6. You must ship the flies to me in a crush proof (an altoids tin for example) container with proper return postage.

PS: The rules were taken from various swaps i found over the internet

Participants:
1. CST - Marabou Leech
2. Beresford13861 - Adams
3. Portbowrules - Foam Hopper - received
4. Danlabarb_DP - Wooley Bugger
5. HalibutHunter - Royal Wulff - received
6. NulodPBall - Matuka
7. YakityYak - Elk Hair Caddis - received

Hey, I don't really need any flies but I'm willing to tie up a few to donate to the general pot...Matuka, Clauser, or midges...if you don't pick, then I'm making midges
