WB and I have been trying to figure out where the proceeds for the auction set of flies we have assembled would go.  Originally, CR and I thought it would be a nice gesture if the proceeds went to WB for keeping this fine board up and running.  But, WB would like the proceeds to benenfit one of the fine organizations that help to either improve our fisheries or the people that may use them.  Since, this set of flies is a cumulative effort amongst board members I figured why not have everybody put in a vote for where the proceeds should go.  The charity with the most votes will be the one that is selected.

There are plenty of other charitable organizations out there, so if you have one that has not been listed that you think would be a good canidate please cast your vote as Other and write in your vote below.  We'll let the voting run up till the end of April.

Thanks Guys! 

The Swap flies are being auctioned off here:  http://www.brfff.com/forum/index.php/topic,6997.0.html
There's a big difference between a dry fly dancing through
a riffle and a weighted fur ball dragging on the bottom.

Looks like we need a couple more votes. Otherwise we will need to come up with some kind of tie breaker.  As it looks right now, I would rather not split up the proceeds from the auction....
