Yes ......... it was really great to see the youngsters taking part. Well done Andrew and Jay  :z16

It was a pity that young Andrew's Hares Ear let him down a bit in round three ......
..... because up until then he was beating you Henry  :lol:

Well Jings , Crivens and Help ma Bob again!:shock:

When I saw the photo of Peter's lovely wee spider I was sure he would win.

Well done everybody else :z14  Especially young Jay and Andrew. The scores show the competition was close. so with another year's practice, the tables could be turned upside down.

Many, many thanks to Mike for running the competition and thanks also to Hamish and Sandy for giving their time for judging. I'm sure all the competitors appreciate their efforts.

And  to all of you who did not enter this time, if Mike does somthing similar next year - then  go on give it a go. It's good fun and you learn a lot.  :grin:

Jings again

Everyone who entered deserves a well done, all the flies were good in their own ways.
What i found was that by marking them the way we did, the marks were much closer. And provided a more level playing field.
Also having 3 opinions changed things dramatically.
I thoroughly enjoyed doing it, but most credit goes to mr B who put up the prizes.

Now all we have to do is work out how to auction the flies and who should benefit, IDEAS please :z16

Aye - it's been an enjoyable experience :cool:  Very interesting seeing different ideas and methods from all who entered (Jay - you give up :?:) it was down to the wire at the end :!:

Mike, Sandy and I did discuss selling the flies off on auction here and donating the proceeds to the Wild Trout Trust. However, I had another idea  :idea:  this morning after a particularly strong coffee  :shock:

This site is certainly the 'home' of all things River Don and is unquestionably the finest online information source for the river (IMHO at least  :wink: ) so might it be an idea to auction off the flies to support the Don hatchery :?:

Hi Mike
                 I have seen Andrew tie a lot better,his G-- Fly thePinkie,Blood worm. This fly has caught Plenty of your fish and on a lot of other fishiers.
  Salmon fly.   I thought he did great being his first salmon fly.
  Hairs ear. Would have been better had he took his time,but will always catch fish. So i hope he beats me next year.I hope this will encourage other young anglers ,and adults to take part next time.    
                                                                                    :lol:
 
     Buying some flies from shops are there to catch anglers.
     Tying your own your tying to catch fish. :wink:

Hi Hamish
                    I dont care how strong your coffee was this morning,you cant say you will donate to the wild trout trust. Then at the end of com petion donate to some other cause :mad: .If you want to donate to the don hatchery why not do so at the next fund raising event. :grin:

Henry,
Errrr - aye  :z6
If you read the thread a bit more closely you will observe that Sandy suggested in his last post that we might consider who/where might benefit from the proceeds of the auction  :arrow: whilst I did rather think it had been previously agreed that we would donate the proceeds of this auction to the WTT what I did in my last post was follow Sandys lead and make what I considered a constructive alternate to the WTT by suggesting the Don hatchery as it's a more 'local' - a local auction for local trout, I like it  :z4
It's not what I say that matters but what we as a forum decide - I'm happy to see any organisation that helps angling and/or fish benefit from this or the next event  :cool:  
I'm looking forward to my next strong coffee  :z18
