Hi Eddie, Most folks just print out the name of the person tying the fly, name of the fly, & email address, on small tags tags and hook it with the point of the hook. I find that mint (altiod)tins work well for shipping as they are very crush proof. Some people like to use little plastic bags also. This works well for nymphs but I don't like to send dry flies in bags. It's nice to have the hackle not all smashed down by the bag... hope this helps.

In these swaps, how do you guys "tag" your flies? I understand what it means and everything, but what method is most commonly used by you guys? Also, what type of box do you normally send flies out in? Del, Its monday....so the flies I had would have been shipped out today, but suprise...Its also columbus day. Tuesday, they are out, I promise Josh Barnett, The streamers are tied. I entered in your "everything" swap...havnt tied up those 10 yet, but wondering if i can send all 25 flies to you in the same container, and have you hold the flies until both swaps are over and send them back to me in the same container. This seems like it would save on shipping a little... Murf, Sunday is open for me if you would like to fish Morgan Run?? Thanks everyone. -Eddie _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx
