Yes you are right. It was not well received and it took a bit to get going. He brought a good thing to our little board here.

Have any of you notice the hits and replies to these swaps. They are some of the highest counts we have here. I just want to thank fowlmood for getting us started, remembering how tough it was to get some of us on board. Who said "a jig is a jig is a jig", and I don't mean specifically. I have seen more variations of jigs and skills displayed than I could have ever imagined. These swaps have added another dimension to our lives, and it give us something to while away the hours of cabin fever that we get by being lock up by the weather or circumstances.
Once again, Thanks fowlmood.

I agree with you 100%.I was getting bored tying the same thing all the time but since I started in these swaps I'm looking for ways to improve the patterns that I've tied for years as well as working with new materials and techniques. Thanks Fowlmood for getting these swaps going.
I do know I loved doing the one I did. The variety of jigs I got in the swap was awesome. Someday I will have to do another one.
I love taking my kids fishing, now if I could just manage to fish at the same time.
I get all jiggy for jig swaps!
I love the swaps to!! the only problem I have is I really only tie 2 styles right now and don't want to get into to many swaps because I think people would get sick of getting the same style In just a different color lol.

Every board I've ever been on has been slow in any kind of swaps!!!! Fly, material swap box etc. but once they do look out.
