Guest Report post Posted May 3, 2011 I would like to once again apologize for the constant delays this year and I am very glad to finally be able to get this wrapped up. Also, I want to thank all of the participants who not only entered the contest this year but throughout the years. I have always looked forward to hosting this event and hope that all of the members here enjoyed participating and voting. The medals awarded for 1st, 2nd & 3rd place in each category are still in production and I just got word it will be another month or so before I will be able to mail those out. I will get all of the participants/winners' email address sent over to J.Stockard so they can send out your gift certificates. A big congrats goes out to everyone on the list below, your flies represent the very best here on FTF! This also marks the first year that a salmon fly or super realistic did not win the contest and I believe that Pat(smalliestalker) is very well deserving. His deer hair work is really something amazing!

Kirk Dietrich 0 Report post Posted May 3, 2011 Congratulations Pat for taking overall and all the first place category winners and runners up. Those are some beautiful and effective looking flies I wouldn't mind having in my box. Great effort on the contest Will and thanks for hosting and giving us the opportunity to participate. Oh, what about an honorable mention for that Frog Popper the cat selected? I hope the kitty's mouth healed well. Kirk Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
