I also dropped Dr. Tom a note and thanked him for his service to the fly tiers, even though I was not able to participate in the swap. He dropped me a thank you back. I do not expect to get hackles but hope to get a catalogue. I am going to put back my pennies so next time I can participate in the swap. Jimi
I also received catalogs, literature, and samples from Tom yesterday... What a treat! I'll just have to use up all these hackles and go buy some more! Sure would be neat to visit the farm someday... Mark
