Terry Beeson Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 The Grand Opening of Fowkes Backcountry Outfitters will be Saturday, February 20th from 9am - 6pm. There will be specials, prizes, and a fly tying contest to benefit Project Healing Waters. Duane and Mona Chari Doty will be there to talk about their new adventure at Bristol Bay, Alaska. Ken, Kevin, and Zack from Just Fishing Guides will be there with their drift boats in tow to talk about their guide service. Terry and Roxanne Wilson will be there signing books and talking about warm water fishing. Rick Coffman with liv2flyfish.com radio will be there from 3-6 getting your "Well Known Secrets" which puts you in a drawing for a prize from him. Several fly tiers will be there showing off their skills and flies. There will be food available (I think Tim is going to fire up the grill for some hot dogs...) We'll probably get the casting pond up and you can cast that rod you've been wanting to try out. More on the fly tying contest... Tie up your best "Patriot" fly and bring it in between now and Friday the 19th. We'll put it on display with the others and take "votes" in the form of $$s... The fly with the most votes will win a prize. All the money will go to Project Healing Waters - Springfield. Come on by for a good time and check things out! If you haven't been by yet, you'll see some changes we think you'll like!!!! We're on South Campbell north of Battlefield and across from Incredible Pizza. Or just look for the drift boats parked out front...

fly2fish Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 What about that well known author, whats his name, that wrote "Dragonflies on My Rod Tip" I think is the name of the book. He does some fishing once in a while too, is he going to be there? F2F
Brian K. Shaffer Posted February 13, 2010 Posted February 13, 2010 Wish I could be there, but I've got some late season dock clearing to do on Taney on my parents dock. Have fun all ! Just once I wish a trout would wink at me! ozarkflyfisher@gmail.com I'm the guy wearing the same Simms longbilled hat for 10 years now.

Terry Beeson Posted February 14, 2010 Author Posted February 14, 2010 Zack... You guys bringing your drift boats? Anyone with a drift boat, bring it with you and show it off. We may have a Clacka / Hyde fight pit set up in the back...

Zack Hoyt Posted February 17, 2010 Posted February 17, 2010 Terry, I will have ole blue behind the Outback for the event. Was hoping to get the new coat of varnish on, but its not in the cards. Still, the three of us all hauling drift boats are sure gonna turn some heads between here and Springfield. Zack Hoyt OAF Contributor Flies, Lies, and Other Diversions
