SnoWolf Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 This show was a raging success. I pretty much spent the whole weekend demo tying in tyers row. I met many fantastic people and learned a ton of stuff. I was happy to see a few faces from NLFT there yet saddend at the same time that there where not more. I was very happy to see all the people there that I met this past summer through volenteering at the various fishing events and from volenteering at the Nationals. I love how easily they all share for the betterment of others for the passion we all share for fly fishing and tying... I entered a pattern into the tying contest and won first place for streamers and that's freakin awesome. I am waiting to officially hear who won the people's choice.... fingers crossed....

CAEddy Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Congrats on the tying comp win Jim, there were some awesome flies entered, so hats off! it was a great show.. lesson learned for future, leave the wife at home if you want to sit through presentations and or workshops! It was a great show, and after seeing the Hook and hackle guys there, I think we should seriously consider putting in a booth for the club, perhaps working with TU combine booths and reduce costs, and promote the grayling project, I know I would be willing to work a bit over the summer to create some media content for use at a show like this.

woolly Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 There were quite a few kids tying their woolly Buggers on Friday afternoon as well as Saturday. I had a blast and the people from Hook and Hackle were a great help on Saturday. Left Calgary on Sunday Morning so I don't know how the Kids booth went that day.
