2010 Fly Fishing Film Tour Call for Entries
Tuesday, July 21, 2009 at 9:25AM 
Fire up the handy cam! The Fly Fishing Film Tour has put out a call for 2010 entries. Some new rules apply which should make for a better tour.
Okay, so here's the deal. We aren't looking for Joe Blow's 10 minute handy cam video footage of his big fish that he raked off the river bottom, and we aren't looking for the all too familiar and overdone Saturday morning cable program "here's my big lodge and this is my celebrity guest who we are going to teach how to fish" footage either. We are seeking out the coolest, baddest, most unique fly fishing films that go far beyond the instructional elements to showcase and celebrate the creative, fun side of the fly fishing culture.
Requirements for film submission:
Submissions can be any length up to a 20 minute maximum.
Film submissions must be fly fishing related

1. Fully edited film tour submission up to 20 minutes long
2. 30 second max end credits for film credits and sponsor mentions

Damn it. I guess this means that the film I had been working on "How To Help Yourself & Other Guides Through Developing An Outfitter Program At Your Lodge" is not gonna work out ... 3 years of work down the tubes.
