Meet the winners of the 2010 Fly Tying Contest.

Grand Prize Winner Dean Myers, originator of the Chain Gang Stone and several other flies hails from Pennsylvania and was introduced to fishing by his father at an early age. Becoming an avid fly tier is easy when you get to fish some of the most famous trout streams in the state…

And The Winner Is……

Over 250 flies, 893 comments, 9000 video views, and over 120,000 hits on the site it is safe to say that the inaugural 2010 Feather-Craft Fly Tying Contest was a great success. First, we want to thank the sponsors again, obviously this couldn’t have been done without Feather-Craft Fly Shop and Rainy’s Flies. Feather-Craft “footed the bill” to get this thing up and running and Rainy’s made it possible for the winning flies to go straight into production which is what set this contest apart from all other contests. Renzetti, Rio, Sage, Redington, Fishpond, and C&F all donated stellar prizes for the winners as well.

New Product Spotlight Video — UV Chewee Skin.

UV Chewee Skin is a thin, super-stretchy, skin that DOES NOT have an adhesive backing. The UV coating falls into that 340 nanometer wavelength that fish can see up to 300-feet deep. So easy to work with. Use it for scud backs and wing cases; wind it on for worm, larvae or nymph bodies. SO COOL!
