Default Fly Fishing Forum Raffle - In aid of the BHF

As some of you may have read my post in the Viewpoint about my charity runs (http://www.flyforums.co.uk/showthread.php?t=20919) and requesting sponsorship, I’ve decided to do something different too!

With a little help from Gus (cheers mate) I thought holding a raffle would go down a treat. I was fortunate enough to win some prizes from the Complete Fisher Forum raffle, so thought we could do the same!

All proceeds will go directly to the British Heart Foundation, whom I’m running for again, which is an organisation that means a lot to me.

So, if you would be able to donate a prize to this cause, then please reply to this thread, every little helps however big or small. Flies, a new line, a rod, or even a days fishing, anything will be so appreciated and funds will go directly to the BHF and help me reach my target of £5,000.

To start things off, I’ll donate a four fish ticket on my local water, and 12 blobs made up of four patterns. Can you generous chaps help out?

If you can donate something, I’ll keep updating this Thread and close the prize giving on May 26th, the day of my first run! Once a few prizes have been donated, I can sort out tickets for those that wish to participate! £1 a ticket, or eleven for £10.

Hope you can help!

And thanks a million to those that have sponsored me already.
