Hey guys, I've been super busy as of late and have not been able to take photos of the fly box. Anyhow I had a bit of extra time to take a few quick photos today. The images are not real sharp, sorry for the rushed shots, but they do let you guys have an idea of what one of you lucky enthusiast will get your hands on after the raffle.

For those of you procrastinators or really busy tying enthusiast that have yet to send in you're flies, please try and get them in before the opener. I'm quite sure that would be greatly appreciated by all the participants. Those of you that have gotten the flies in with plenty of time to spare, thank you much!

I bought a lotto ticket just to say that I did but really am hoping to win the "Mega" jackpot right here. My odds are a lot better here then the 176,876,089 to 1 of winning the half a billion. Benny-this was a great idea.

Mine should be mailed out tomorrow. I know, I procrastinated. But to be fair, I joined late.
