I will send them out at soon as possible. I will keep everyone informed of when I get them in and get them shipped out. I sent a PM with my address and shipping instructions to everyone. If Anyone has any questions let me know.
Happy tying

Sorry I missed the chat last night guys, but I got busy around the house and forgot. I will get ont he jigs asap, meaning maybe saturday afternoon (wife has a baby shower for a friend). Can't wait to see all the AWSOME jigs I am gonna get

I dropped the ball on the chat also, but I will get my jigs in the mail
asap. I have a bunch tied up, I will have to go thru them and
pick out the best ones. When working for myself , I am not a
perfectionist ( the fish don't mind, they will bite an ugly jig )
but I will mail in my best work ( such that it is )

Good luck

Im a little worried about you two..Less than 24 hour's after the pattern has been finalized and you guys are already done...:D

Ill be on time as well !!!

radtexan, I have very good reason to be done with mine. I am healing from a broke ankle while horseing my float tube through a rain slicked willow patch full of washouts. (groan) Time at the tying station is not a problem.
This is the first time I have been in a jig swap and knowing that I am a master, not of tying, but of putting off things till the last possible day, I thought it would be in the best interest of all to get this behind me soon as possible. lol I simply tied what is working well for me, I'm in hopes they work as well for you folks also. ole Mike
