We just had a few tyers in this one. Each tyer tied 12 flies (plus another 12 bonus flies from Nerka) to be divided up among participants. Participants either tied multiples of a single pattern or a few flies in each of several patterns so each tyer got back 12 flies in return.
Many thanks to the participants!
