Guest Report post Posted February 27, 2009 The following three flies represent the best that the forum had to offer this year and I must say they are all quite special! The 2008 FTOTY Overall Winner and the member that will be awarded the Far North Rodsmiths bamboo fly rod is Edwin Rist. Edwin won with his spectacular entry into the Steelhead & Salmon Freestyle category. Edwin, congrats on the win, you certainly deserved the honor this year! 2nd Place - AndyWeiss - Most Creative Category 3rd Place - mfpdflies - Trout Nymph Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
