    Any participant who has been tying for less than one year may submit their fly for "Rookie of the Year" consideration, in addition to any other category their fly is already entered into.

    Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Award
    This category is open to any style or pattern that is tied on a size 20 hook or smaller. Hook size will be displayed during voting.

    Most Realistic
    Award for the best realistic fly. No limitations for style, size or imitation, but it must be tied on a hook.

    I like the idea of giving each species more than one category. That way more people have a chance of winning. I'd enter the panfish topwater area.
