Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} 2026 BGT Results and Write-Up!

Thank you so much for a boatload of fun! Perhaps next year we can share good ponds. Evidently, Hunter’s Pond at Greenspring Village is THE place to try!

{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} IMPORTANT: New Bluegill Tournament Submission Instructions

Hi Everybody,

As many of you know, due to an unexpected issue with the TPFR email submission system, the TPFR.org email address given for tournament submissions is currently not functioning properly.

If you have already submitted your tournament entry to any tpfr.org email address, please resubmit (forward with attachments) your contest submissions to the following email addresses:

To: rob@robsnowhite.com
CC: misha4455@gmail.com

To ensure your submission is received and processed, please include all required tournament information and photos when resending, i.e., ensure you forward your submission email with attachments, or author a new email (sorry). 

We apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your patience as we work through this issue. If you have any questions regarding your submission, please contact us using the email addresses above. I'll check in with each contestant at beer tie this evening to ensure each contestant is notified and given a chance to fix the submission. 

Cordially yours,
 
Michael "Misha" Gill

Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Fish photos

Hi Casey, 

The purpose of the penny is just to ensure that the competitor printed the ruler to the correct scale, so my ruling would be no, it does not have to be in the photo. We will trust your honor that the penny was attached and the scale was correct. 

Sorry I just saw this post!

Cordially yours,
 
Michael "Misha" Gill

Does the penny need to be in each photo? It's hard to aim the camera with slippery fingers in the sun to get the whole thing in the frame.
