2023 TIE-A-THON

● Tie some flies!
● Help some deserving programs!
● Win some prizes!

Date: Event runs from September 12th – December 12th

Mission: Tie and donate flies to local nonprofits that “help people through fishing”
(Examples: Casting Carolinas, Mended, others TBD depending on number of flies tied).
Improve our fly tying skills and have some fun!!

Guidelines:
● Flies should be appropriate for fishing WNC DH waters and Lake Logan. (These
groups have plenty of old, non appropriate flies that have been donated)
● For every dozen (12) designated flies submitted, you will receive 1 ticket that gives
you 1 chance at the December 12th prize drawing. So, the more you submit, the
more chances you have to win!!
● For you non-tying types, we are more than welcome to take donations of newly
purchased flies that are on the list. For each six (6) donated, you will receive 1
raffle ticket.
● Please label your flies submitted with the name of the fly and hook size.

Goal: We have busted through our original 300 Fly Goal and are already at almost 600 flies.  Keep Up the good work and lets see how close we can get to 1000 by December.
