Cool .... Will we start in November then like last year, as that way you can be preparing your SBSs during October?

Cheers

Magic

I have a few ideas already :roll

Are we going to theme each month or is it just a free for all?
basic guidelines/parameters can make things a bit more interesting as regards a competition.
although it is nice to see what people want to tie as well, (but we did do it that way last year :wink)

Cheers

Hi Sandy :z16

I think we could just go ahead with any fly of your choice for the first month and then I might make it a theme or something in December :wink

Cheers
Mike

PS: I might be holding an international open 3wt distance casting competition next spring ...... thought I'd mention it in case you need to get any practice in :cool:

So are we going to start the 2010/2011 comp from November?-march?
It's a bit late for October and some of us are still fishing(even if it is with bait :oops)
but it is Monsoon season here shortly, about as close to winter as we get,
still it prevents the offshore fishing from nov-feb so effectively makes my close season :z6

sounds like time for new post mr B  :z18

I did mine last night Baz.  What about a list of flies people would like to see and then we could complete them?

cheers
