Guest Report post Posted March 29, 2011 I want to once again say thanks to all of the participants for their patience in what has been a rough couple of months for me and I do apologize to everyone for all of the delays in getting the voting up. As with every year I did my very best to photograph each fly to be best of my ability, some flies were easier to photograph than others. If for any reason there appears to be something wrong with an entry I do apologize, I did my best to make sure all flies were there and in the proper categories. Now that the voting has begun there is little that I can do correct things. Another thanks to all of the sponsors of the event and to everyone that has donated prizes for the winners. I really do appreciate everyone who took the time to participate, without you this contest would not be possible. Best of luck! I'm going to leave the voting up until April 11th at 9PM EST. The winners of each category will move onto round 2 where the 2010 Fly Tier of the Year will be chosen.

Kirk Dietrich 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2011 Will, if you think you had it rough, you ought to try picking the best fly in these categories when two or three could actually be the best in each! Excellent job of getting this done! Thank you, Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nymphs were tough too because there were so many. :bugeyes: Great job everyone :yahoo: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bbird 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2011 I just finished voting, and the tiers have really made it hard to pick just one fly from a category. That is one awesome bunch of flies! :headbang: Good luck to everyone, and a big thanks to Will for putting the contest together. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
