The deadline for the saltwater swap is fast approaching. Remember the mailing deadline is May 15 (this coming Wednesday). I am pleading, please also remember to e-mail me the recipe/instructions for your flies. I have some of the flies up on my website at http://chemprof.tripod.com/fishing.html Click on the picture of the flounder. The images at the moment are those that I have obtained using a scanner directly. I hope to replace these in the next few weeks with pictures taken with my camera in macro mode. Those images should look a lot better and be more color true.
We ended up with fourteen (14) tiers for the saltwater swap. Everyone should prrepare 13 flies to be sent to the address below for the swap. A reminder that the target species are redfish, speckled trout (spotted seatrout), weakfish, snook, stripers, blues, and flounder. Tying deadline is May 15. Recipes for the flies should be sent via e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] . Flies should be sent with a return envelope with postage to Mark Delaney 316 W. LaGrange St. Lake Charles, LA 70605 I will keep everyone who signs up informed of the progress of the swap. Until the deadline approaches, most of the updates will be sent directly and not posted to the vfb board. At the end of the swap I will also post all the recipes (hopefully with hotographs) on my website at http://chemprof.tripod.com/fishing.html Participants as of 4/1/02: Mark Delaney <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Epoxy Shrimp BJ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Mexican Flag Jerry Goldsmith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>Hackle & Rope Shrimp James Lee <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ?

I am having orthopedic problems that are due to my diabetes and will have to make some doctor's appontments out of town (most likely in Houston about 2/12 hrs. away). I will be out of town on 5/13 in Houston for sure. It is my intention to keep this swap on time, so everyone remember, the tying deadline is May 15. Please have your flies in the mail by that date or before. Thanks. Good tying everyone!! Mark Delaney __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!
