I couldn't believe how good he made my flies look. :shock:

All the flies already look good, I just put them on the table or the vise and just take a photo. You guys are all doing a great job with the flies.

Sweet looking flies for sure!!!

I bet you guys want this to be over with already...

Well I'm here to tell you that it is....

Just one lucky fly tying enthusiast will win...

The good news is your odds of wining just went up...

There are only twenty-two people who turned in flies...

But the fly box miraculously was filled with 408 flies...

THIS SUCKER IS DONE!!!

It will be raffled real soon! Hehehe.... Good Luck to you all!

OK. Now that this is done, except for knowing who the winner is, I've something to say. Having been on the receiving end of a box worth of flies from the fine folk on this board a couple of years ago and, having been and still, catching fish on those flies, I can say that it is the flies and not the box that truly makes this so special. There are so many good tiers here and the box holds so many flies that the winner will likely be fishing them for years to come. One of you lucky bastards is going to have a little treasure trove of trout catching magic.

Have fun. You most fortunate *.

I carry that nymph box almost every time I am chasing trout and am constantly amazed at and reminded of the quality of people here. Added to that bit of wonder I carry is the person that made that unlooked for gift happen is…Benny. The same guy what put on this little, or not so little shindig. So while I did not take part in this deal, I'd like to thank Benny for his efforts with this. Not only is someone going to get a mighty gift from all involved, but everyone who watched the progress of this undertaking has had the pleasure of seeing some mighty nice flies come in to be photo'd by Benny for display.

So Benny, Thanks! 8-)

By the way Benny, are those PTs and Hares Ears from you? They look an awful lot like a bunch you tied up for me. In other words, they look very good. 8-)

To Benny for putting this together and everyone who contributed flies to this box THANK YOU very much. The box is a very artistic thing of beauty. I agree who ever wins the box will have a wonderful array of patterns that they can fish for for many years. To the winner, I hope the first fly you choose fools the fish of a life time and that throphy goes deep into your backing!

Simply stunning! Like I said, we need to do this twice a year at least.

by **Reyne** » April 26th, 2012, 8:25 am

Thank you, Benny, for putting this on. I'm sure whoever wins this great box will be set for awhile. And your talent with the camera, most excellent! :rockon:

Here is the winner of the Greys GS Fly Box.

Congrats to Lanny aka Gila Trout on winning the nice full fly box, that's 408 flies!!!!

Thanks to all of you that participated in the very cool fly box give away, it was lots of fun for me. I was always happy to see that package in the mailbox. I always knew I was not going to be disappointed when I opened the package. Thanks to all of you that sent me extra sets of flies, you know who you guys are, I really do appreciate all the flies. * this was good, I only wish I could have given this box away in person. Anyhow, Lanny you're the winner! Congrats and enjoy all the fish caught on each fly out of this box.
