I cant wait to see all the flies. Im done pending participants, i'll post a pic soon. AKGrayling, I too am in Anch and when the time comes to get flies in I could drop them off or meet you somewhere like a local flyshop or something if it works for you. I really dislike standing in line at the post office. Ahh, nice marmot

I've got the flies ready to send, will probably send on Monday.

Makes more sense why you're going for the Goddard knowing that. We have open water and hungry fish here so there will be no tying during daylight hours!!!
