Great job Cosmin! That's a very impressive list of competitors!

Good-luck, and please keep us posted on the results of this competition, and feel free to post photos of the event (photos are very helpful for showing what your event is all about, and for encouraging new people to come out and join in on the fun).

[Cosmin Muresan]

Thank you Todd, but this is not just my work, all my club colleagues are doing a great job, and this is the result. And we hope we will have good weather and hungry fish

Congratulations on your first competition Cosmin! I do hope that you'll be willing to pat the results and some photos when you're able.

Cheers,
Todd

[Cosmin Muresan]

Thank you Todd, I have the final results now. I am still waiting for the pictures. I will post some of them here but the whole event story/pictures will be posted on our blog www.sottoflyfishing.com
Also we will have some interviews/feedback (Q&A) from some of the competitors.

These are the final results and on my blog I tried to explain again how the system works

[Ivo Balinov]

This is awesome. Great to know that there that the competition scene in that part of Ontario is livening up!!!

If you guys want to join the Eastern Canadian Fly Fishing Competitive League let me know: your future competitions would be advertised under the league.

We can also help with advice on competition formats and rules from our experience around Ottawa and Montreal.
You would also get the league's medals for the winners in your future events. 

Cheers,
Ivo

If everything goes well we will meet at the Chateauguay River Competition and we can talk more details.
