Important changes
- The organizer has changed the rules in order to reflect the welcome increase in international participation. From 2010 onwards, the win is open to all participants, irrespective of citizenship.
- Every participant has to transfer €5.00 (please find account information below). This money will be used to cover arising postal charges (i.e. sending out certificates).
- Classes:
- Salmon Fly category: In order to be included in the competition, every participant in this category has to submit two flies (Classic AND Hairwing on Hayabusa 771- #2/0)
- Dry Fly category: In order to be included in the competition, every participant in this category has to submit two flies (Royal Coachman on Hayabusa #10 – FLY 372 AND one fly featuring your own pattern).
If , for some reason, only one fly is submitted in the above-mentioned categories, these flies will NOT be included in the competition
