O.K., so just one prize.
Made you look!
The admin has given me the go ahead to have a little contest.
You have probably noticed a new forum called " Book Reviews "

Here's what I am going to do.
There are a couple of sets of flies left over from a swap that I hosted.

I need content for my new project, so I am going to bribe, I mean entice, er, request submissions of book reviews to myself for pre-screening to make sure all is well.
To make it easier for everyone, submit your review to me via e-mail in word perfect. PM me to let me know you want to submit a review and I will send you my e-mail address.

For every submission your name goes into a hat, or boot or the like, and at the end of every month I will do a draw to see who gets a set of flies from the swap.

Just think, for a only a very few minutes of your time, a chance to win highly coveted FFBC member tied masterpieces of fly tying.

The first contest will be for the month of october.

So get reading and typing, these are fine flies!

Only a few more days left to get in on the action this month.

Book reviews can be on most anything even remotely related to fly fishing.

So far it is a one horse race.

on your mark.........

I just wanted to post saying that I received my flies for winning last month(nov) and boy are they great! I was thinking to myself 'I need some epoxy minnows for searuns' and what do you know! Theres 3 in the bag! Plus some egg patterns to boot.

I couldn't be happier, and would like to thank all the tiers of FFBC who contributed extra flies for the swaps so newbies like me can have a chance at seeing non commercialy tied flies by passionate fly fishermen. Happy new years, and for those watching the Russia/Canada WJHC semifinal this afternon...GO CANADA GO!!
