Merry Christmas to you and yours, Martin, from the middle of the States.

Dear Luka,
my tying abilities do not allow to participate in such a competition, but I am intrigued by your nick, does that mean you cast faster than your shadow? 8)
Merry Christmas, although, depending, yours may be a few weeks to go,

Beautiful fly Barry.
It is a wonderful reminder of all the " Funky Sunrises " we have seen together in trout country over the years. Love the incorporation of the Peacock body fly for the shoulder. I hope this fly gets you another 14 pound Rainbow in the future. Congratulations on all your flies contributed to the Streamers 365 project.
Merry Christmas, and happy tying in the New Year.
Garth

As this is the last of my offerings to this project I would like to take the chance to say how honored I am to have benn included in this and how much fun the year has been. A big thankyou to Darren and whomever helped him for a job very well done.

When I tie some small stuff I'm always amazed at how little material is "consumed"...
Besides being able to actually SEE THEM...
The BIG PHLYZ are phun but, if ya' wann'a dance, ya' gott'a pay the band !!!

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
