JigCraft Swap #4 Pics

[ScottV]

Man, I just mailed them Sat. morning. Looks like the mail does good when it's leaving MS. LOL

I'm glad y'all are receiving them and I enjoyed hosting this one. It's a breeze when you're working with folks like y'all.

Well I am not so sure about the mail. I know Lubbock is a good bit west of me as I am on the east side of Dallas but no show yesterday. I hope they didn't hold them out of spite. See I was offered 50 bucktails from a person in AL. He mailed them last Tuesday and they arrived yesterday. They are in ziplock bags inside a box that the Post Office placed inside a trash bag due to the smell of rotting flesh from being in the system for almost a week. A buzzard was spotted circling our house for hours looking for the kill. Now I did not know that these were going to be this fresh and had assumed they were already cured. Now my next problem is if I can salvage these. They are currently on top of the trash can we keep outside because my wife does not want the smell in the garbage can. Yes it is that bad. Any one local want to take a stab at curing them for a 50/50 split? I will post on another site to see if I can get any takers as well.

Glad you got them Ronnie. I guess your incoming mail works better. LOL

 

[baitmaster]

Gottem in hand. Great set of jigs!

 

[Fish Candy Bait Company]

Picked mine up yesterday. My PO held them for postage due? I had $2.24 on them and they wanted another $1.49.

 

[StumpHunter]

Glad you got them Ronnie. I guess your incoming mail works better. LOL

It doesn't Scott I only got one package. LOL it's good to see that 1/2 got here. It was the swap jigs so I have the important ones.

 

[AtticaFish]

I only got one package. LOL

Is the 'missing' package the one with the original jigs you tied? If so, that box is cursed!! Ha! Would be interesting to know where all it went on it's travels.

 

[ScottV]

StumpHunter's original package finally made it to my house and those are the jigs entered in the swap. The next day, his replacement jigs arrived so I mailed them back to him the same day I mailed everyone their jigs. I'll never understand the postal service.

I hope you get them today Ronnie.

 

[hhawkins]

Scott, I got mine in the mail the other day! Wow....the jigs look much better in person. Everybody did some real pretty jigs. That swap was exciting. Thanks !

 

[StumpHunter]

Scott, they must be on that two week trip!!! I still don't have them, LOL it's amazing what the mail does sometimes. I mailed a order of jigs off Tuesday morning to a town 65 miles south of me and he just got them today.
They will get back here, maybe....

 

[ScottV]

Good grief, I can't believe the stupid mail. I mailed both envelopes at the same time.

 

[crazy angler]

[Fish Candy Bait Company]

It's government run, don't try to understand it.

 

[ScottV]

I'm glad to hear everyone is getting their jigs. I got a call from StumpHunter yesterday and his lost package finally found it's way home.

Again, thanks to everyone for their participation in this swap, it was an honor to host it.

I sent a package to New York. He got it in a couple days. Sent one to Nowata OK. took four days . That is about a 45 min. drive from me . Next time I think I'll take it there . Get a free cup of coffee, a doughnut and tell a few fish'in lies/truths depending on how you look at it. Great job on all those jigs. We need to think about building us a wall of fame Already got a start with Scotts frame work mighty fine. Well done all.
