Fly tying contest

ANNUAL EVENT AT THE TROIS-RIVIÈRES FLY FISHING SHOW

THE CONTEST - 2022 EDITION

Our jury, made up of 5 experienced fly tyers, met at the November 2022 Trois-Rivières Fly Fishing Show to judge the flies, divided into three categories:

• Wet fly (imposed fly: Green Highlander)
• Spey fly (imposed fly: Lady Caroline)
• Open category (theme: flowers of the world).

A total of five prizes worth nearly $600 each were awarded in the contest:

• First place Wet (jury vote)
• First place Spey (jury vote)
• First Place Open Category (jury vote)
• First place Open Category (public face-to-face vote)
• First place Open Category (virtual public vote)

The flies were exhibited at the Show, in the conference room where the public vote was held in person.

The day after the first four prizes were awarded, we published the photos of the flies in the open category (taken by our team) on our Facebook page. People online were able to see the fly tyers’ creations and vote for their favourite fly in the virtual category.
