GCC Expo Held May 6-7, 2011

GCC Expo Featured Great Trips, "One of a Kind" Fly Plates

The auction for the FFF Gulf Coast Expo contained TWO MAJOR TRIPS: the High Lonesome Ranch in Colorado and Deep Water Cay in the Bahamas.  The winner of the 2010 HLR trip was Glen 'Catch' Cormier, the fly fishing columnist for Louisiana Sportsman magazine. Check out this article on the trip he and his wife Lisa made back in September, 2010.

Also in this year's auction was our special Buz Buszek Fly Plate, which contained flies from 22 of the living Buz Buszek Recipients (the 23rd is living in a retirement home). Yes, it even contained flies from all three of Texas's own Buszek recipients, Billy Munn, Judy Lehmberg, and Jimmy Nix! This is the first time in many years that such a Buz Buszek Plate has been made and the very first time one has ever been available at a Council show!  In addition, "single" fly plates were up for bidding, including rare flies by some of fly tying's greatest achievers.  Here are a few samples of those quality plates at our last EXPO:
