I won't get all of the ones I want, but I buy one of the bags.*/ If you only pick one, then what are the other 9 that you'll be getting 100 of? What can you use for your type of fishing? *Remember the Whiting Co-op swap:* Had to have 5 swappers pick 5 different saddles to divide up (I thing it was 5). Then you got 1/5th of each saddle- variety vs bulk and much better pricing than the 10-paks. *But these were dry-fly saddles all,* a narrow range for a particular fly. Byard picked out lots of 5 by requests and availabily, like midge saddles, and 5 co-oppers signed up for each set. If you didn't want midge hackles or dry fly hackles, this was not your swap. That's why I had a narrow window of *trout hooks*, but I could branch out with other hooks I can use. *Rick needs to evaluate* the requests and negotiate the *most favored hooks*. Swappers must give a range and not be too dead set. Once he has 10 hooks styles in 10 sizes that 10 swappers agree on, he has a complete co-op swap. I will donate some hooks to Rick and some flies and make sure he has enough $$$ for SH to make it worth his while. Hardest part- 10 swappers settle on 10 hook models and sizes. Send Rick the average cost of all hooks (once settled), so that you don't buy 1000 expensive hooks and get 900 less expensive hooks back. Pay with Paypal or direct to Rick. Send Rick a SABox with postage to be determined by Rick. Include in box whatever for Rick's efforts. End result is that you'll have 10 bags of 100 hooks of styles and sizes you want (1000 total) for around $45. My 'tip' to Rick will be a 5-hook kick-back of each size. Fair enough for the work he'll do. Once we work out the bugs, this method should work out as well as the Whiting swaps did. And there's no reason we can't do another Whiting Co-op swap, even is Byard is on a different venture right now. Saltwater SS hooks should be a separate swap for those in salt water. *Name* *style* *size* *Peggy Brenner* *700B* *10* *Joyce Westphal* *135* *16* ** *070?* *16* *Rick Zieger* *300* *14* *Don Ordes* *320* *10* ** *320* *12* ** *320* *14* *Don Ordes* *280* *6* ** *280* *8* ** *280* *10* ** *280* *12* *Don Ordes* *270* *4* ** *270* *6* ** *270* *8* *Rene Zillman* *270* *12* *Wayne Blake-Hedges* *700B?* *12* Neville (Nev) Gosling Greater Vancouver, B.C.
