SalmoTrutta, that's a nice gesture. As mentioned we'll announce on the Friday so people have time to coordinate something like donating a ticket. There will be no need to pick tickets up in advance either they will be waiting for the winners at the door (with their names on them).

loongcast,

How about tickets for the Edmonton show?
I'll get tickets anyways. My wife and I really appreciated the if3 showing at the beginning of Nov. at Grant MAcewan. Breath taking cinematography and some amazing extreme fly fishing. Thoroughly enjoyable.

That was in the fish pond at gibbons, just north of Edmonton. That was actually his first day out with his fly pole. The night before he was out with me and my fly pole. It was my first time, I was tied up with the fly stuck in a tree loosing my mind and he laughed at me! I let him try and he done quite well with it do I went and got a Walmart jobbie that night. I think this year we will upgrade him to something decent.

That's awesome stvnda. How old is he? Echo fly fishing has this Echo Gecko rod that is awesome as it casts a very nice line but is made to be far more durable for kids (who can be hard on stuff). You don't need to spend a whole bunch of money to get a kid into fly fishing, although if the rod is too cheap it can make it tougher to learn if its working against him (Kind of like learning to drive a car where the clutch sticks, it pops out of gear, and you have to manually flick the signal light... its doable but it will make it more difficult to learn properly is all.

Hope we see you guys at the show.

Hey Pipco,
There's an event listed for the Edmonton show as well, but I think I saw you found that already. Edmonton is on Saturday and Red Deer is on Sunday
