Saltheart and I were talking, there are 11 people partisapating in the swap, we're tieing 12. Could we maybe put a set of these flies up for auction to help support striped-bass.com?

Putting a set up for auction for the good of the sight sounds like a great idea to me.:happy:

COOL:cool:

Thanks guys. That's pretty nice of you all, and sincerely appreciated :)

A set of our flies for action ??? If so I'll start the bidding at $12.00 I love this stuff
A Healthy New Year to ALL !!!!


Bob B.If your feet aint wet U aint Fishing

:smash: Im a glutten, (like I need more flies) OK, my bid $25.00:p 'GOOD LUCK GOODTYIN"

$30.00 bid

being from out of state and not posting that often I think that you could still consided this a legitamate bid. Some of the patterns that I have seen posted are inspirational. I have been tying size 18 and 22s too long!

John
I have not seen anyone bid reciently if I have won, Just let me know where to send the money plus any shipping costs that may be included

Fishguts: I'm making an executive decision here :p and I'm going to leave that decision to the guys that came up with the idea ;)

I would say lets let it ride for another two weeks. Say closing midnight , Feb 1. We should also put up a new thread that says teaser auction or something. By the time a thread gets 4 pages deep , some people might not get to where we are having the auction. Since the flies are not even due til March 1 , we have plenty of time.

John , I'm down here pecking away at a 1993 vintage computer so could you start an auction thread. Maybe just move the bids already placed to the new thread so its easy for people to keep track?

Thanks for the bid Fishguts. Thirty plus shipping is a good bid. Let's see if it holds up for two weeks.

OK Saltheart - all set. So, how does the site look on Netscape 2 and over a 14.4 modem :smash:

Thanks,

John

It looks fine. This damned little red button mouse is driving me crazy though! :)

Thanks. That sounds fine with me. I think that smokie has a good Idea going, Hopfully the bid will jump a little. the past year or so I have spent many hours pooring over the pages here at s-b.com
Great site

I'm going to spice it up a little by adding the two squid Saltheart posted. I believe the last bid was 30 bucks. Some one got to Beat that.:smash:

:D to mor SQUID. $35.00.
"GOOD LUCK GOOD TYIN":happy:

What have we here $ 40.00 cool Uncle Sam was very good to me !!!!!!

Thanks
Bob B.

If your feet ain't wet U ain't fishing

Ok we're up to forty bucks,do I here fortyfive.

So its past Midnight Feb 1 so Bobbike wins the auction with a bid of $40. Send John a check for $40 and we'll see that you get the flies after the swap. Good bid and good deal. Some of them flies cost over $6 each in stores.

Bobbike , you all set on this ?
