So James, let's start this out with Molly's phone call. You will be able to find her. I haven't deleted it.

And then I'll start out with something.

Hi, Tom, this is Molly from the Roaring Fork Valley in Colorado.

This past weekend I made the trip to Vale to participate in the annual Te Mountain Games, which is in part of fly fishing competition.

And after two rounds of accuracy casting, I found myself in the finals which usually takes place on a float in a local river

but since the rivers are too I'm safe to float this year they put the 10 competitors on a series of

private ponds in a gated community in the area.

And having only been in the sport for two seasons this will be my third I

really had no experience with Stillwater fly fishing but I remembered seeing the title on your list of podcasts, which I listen to all the time,

driving to and from rivers and work and whatnot.

So I listened on the morning of the competition on the way to the finals to your

podcast with Phil Rollian steelwater techniques and fortunately had that information to take with me to the finals to do as good as I could and I certainly did appreciate it.

So thank you so much and just wanted to let you know that we're out there listening and utilizing all that great information.
