Just wanted to give you guys an update. Nearly the entire side of the fly box is filled. I was going to wait till the box was filled to take a photo, but I just had to give you all the update. There's going to be an extremely happy person, and I know... there will be a few envious persons as well.

If seeing all these flies on the first two pages doesn't motivate you to join in, I don't know what will. There is still plenty of time to join in and get your flies in for the giveaway.

Yeah Benny, don't discount yourself, most of us know you personally and for those who don't know you there are plenty of us to vouch for you! You deserve to be involved as much as us!

Benny,
Seems like no one has a problem with you throwing in. I'm just happy to be able to participate and have a 1/24 chance to win.
I just wish all the slots were filled so we can get on with the drawing!
Regards,
Rey
