For flies you can do the redneck ziplock bag filled with water and a couple pennies trick.

Unfortunately thus far my entry fees have been a donation so have not focused on the payout structure...hopefully that changes before too long :wink:

The flies @ HVRF are EPIC. You'll need one big ass ziploc bag.

At least they don't try to recoup the prize pool by making up fines on the spot. :tape:

Other then the flies.. my favorite contest of year. Great event for families. We actually stay the week after at a nice campground up there. You also have the Hudson valley distillery up there. Awesome bourbon. Nice people run the event. People who actually are usually smiling.
