Sayre,

AC

AC
Hadn't showed up a/o Saturday's mail.....maybe today....
UG

UG

Uncle Grumpy
I promised I mailed it, I have reciept. I'm gonna feel bad if you don't get it, our mail down here is delayed so. I dunno. They did not put a tracking Number on it I said something to the person but next time will for sure make one put it on there!!!
AC, others on the list....
Lets see what happens over the weekend - then re-evaluate next week. Worst case, we could start over w/ a nex box.

No response from Scrapper yet....should we skip over him until a later time?
UG
Uncle Grump,
I'm not sure what was up w/ the slow postage, maybe all the bad weather.....but hope you enjoyed the box!!!
AC
AC
Not your fault - you can't control the weather.
Lots of goodies in it. Not pulled anything out.................yet......
UG
I've enjoyed doin this because it lets me get to see what others are doin and other areas have to offer for Crappie!!
AC
How's the box moving along guys?????? Haven't seen what's coming out and what's going in. Can we get an update.
Fatman
I'm ready... Can't wait...
Fatman
See my posts - #51 ....sent Scrapper a PM 2 weeks ago - no response to date.
So - do we skip him (#54)? If so, then it's Sayer315 who is next up, but since he's not checked in, I don't have a address for him.
I'll gladly send the box on, but I need an address to send to.....People have to check in on a regular basis for this to
work.
Get me a address, and the box is on the way.....
UG
Ok this isn't my swap but Njones hasn't been on in four days and scrpper hasn't been on in a few weeks as I just checked. I'd say skip scrapper and we'll add him in later. I'll get hold of Sayre315 and have him send Uncle Grump a PM with his address, so we can get the box moving again. I'll send njones a PM letting him know I suggested doing this.
Fatman
Sounds good to me, Thanks Fatman!!! Dont wanna let the box sit to long, that stuff needs to see water soon!!
AC
Can't get the package in the mail today - will do so tomorrow.
UG
Sayre
The box is headed your way. Put prioroty mail ($7.80) postage on it - it should arrive your way M-T according to the post office lady. Had I gone Parcel Post ($7.07), it would have been next Sat. :(
I put some goodies in there - not going to disclose what at this time......
I will see if I can get a pic up of what I took....some neat tied jigs, some chenille, and some soft plastics.....

AC
Sounds good Unlce Grump. Can't wait to get it in!
I got the box in today and there are ALOT of goodies. It's taking every part of me to leave a little bit of stuff for whoever is next! lol i'll try to have it out tomorrow
The Box arrived today in Uncertain, Texas. Haven't opened it and will be adding to it and send it on its way south early next week. Am saving the fun for Sunday afternoon. That is always a uneventfull day around here and will make the afternoon go very quickly.
So get ready Revtoby it may be Christmas for you around Shrove Tuesday. Think there is a sermon there somewhere.
Redman
Cmon guys post up what your putting in and taking out. Makes for the itch for the next round LOL.
Havnt gotten the box yet.
I took out some pony heads, blue chinille, tan chenille, deer hair, some curly tail plastics, and a Rapala sticker :).
I put in alot of ball heads, and split shot i made, some squirrel hair jigs, and some painted jig heads.
waiting on a address from soswine...
Before I forget....when the box came my way, there was a package of 3 jigs labeled "critter pack" - had a frog, minnow and shrimp pattern ties.
Nice work. So who tied it?
UG
OK Fatman I only took out one item a holder for around the neck. Nothing of interest for me. I did load up the box with some sweet items for the crappie jig tier. Think I put in like 25 items as I thought that the box was a little lite on good stuff. Besides my tying bench needed cleaning any way. When it arrived here it had alot of plastic in it and a few odd jig heads and a few pieces of drab body material. Thats the chance you take on a pass around box. Thats why I did what I did. A Strike out for me a home run for the next few guys.
Redman
That was I, why?Quote:

well thank you uncle grump. My addy has been sent to soswine, looking forward to see what goodies are in it.
I turned it over to the cappable hands of the federal gubmint ie: the postal service where the motto is...What can we lose for you.
