Just out of curiosity why 15 jigs.It seems funny since you work at a sporting goods store.Just my .02 worth.Do you sell these jigs?

Thanks for responding.I was just curious.When there is a swap like this ,do we all meet up someplace like a sportsmen show?It seems like sending via the mail or ups could get expensive.Im interested and I have tied jigs in the past.I might tie some more.Hehehe.I just wont have all the caffeine that day.

well captain all's you gotta do is mail them to me and i will take care of the rest.
but i think you are on to something about the whole meeting up...........well i guess if all of you wouldn't mind you could come to vancouver and meet either at my work or even better my house.... that way we can have a bbq and fishing and do the swap like that ............. but ill think about it and after i get my goal number of jig tiers ill bring it up and see if it is posible.
thank you
Joshua

SO I CAN COUNT YOU IN RIGHT?????

Joshua,

May I suggest starting with a smaller number? This time of year there aren't as many guys visiting the site. You may have a hard time getting 15.

racfsh - these swaps work by mail - one person is the organizer and everyone sends the jigs to him, then that person divides them up and sends them out so everyone gets one of each contributor's jig. Each person sends a couple bucks to cover shipping and handling.

We have done this for flies, it worked out quite well and is pretty fun. I don't tie jigs or I'd sign up...
