GFF Summit 2008 will happen!

The forums are very quiet

The Global FlyFisher forum has existed for almost as long as the site, and the oldest posts are more than 20 years old. Forums aren't what they used to be. Social media has taken over a lot of their roles, and the GFF forum is very quiet ... to put it mildly.
We keep everything online for the sake of history, and preserve the posts for as long as possible, but as you will see, quite a few of them aren't in a good shape, but rely on old images hosted elsewhere, which are no longer available, odd codes from old systems and much more, which can't be shown in a decent way.
But the posts are here, and you can - if you insist - start new threads and reply to old ones. But don't stay awake waiting for replies, because they are unfortunately few and far apart.

The planning for this year's Summit is slowly commencing. This is the first official announcement.

Several people have already mailed me about the GFF Summit for 2008, and let me start my confirming that there will be a Summit this autumn.

My intention is to stick to the scheme that has worked successfully for two years already and place the event on the Danish island Fyn in September. I have no set dates or locations yet, but expect something along the lines of the previous years.

Since the Summit has grown from the first incernation to the second, I would expect it to do so again this year, and because of that I intend to limit the number of participants. I do this for two reasons:

1) To keep the venue intimate and make sure we all get to talk and learn to know each other
2) To limit the number of anglers fishing in one spot. Last year's almost 30 people were close to the limit of what any location can sustain, and I would like for all who want to be able to fish together

I will keep spots open for all who participated last year and they will have first right. When all previous participants are accounted for, the remaining spots will be up for grabs by new participants.

I expect to limit the number to 40 and since we were about 30 last year, that will open for new people.

As I said: expect to be contacted if you already was on the Summit and if not, keep an eye out for the public announcement.

If you have comments, suggestions, questions or anything, just contact me directly or post it here and I will try to deal with it.

Since you got this far …

A money box
The GFF money box

… I have a small favor to ask.

Long story short

Support the Global FlyFisher through several different channels, including PayPal.

Long story longer

The Global FlyFisher has been online since the mid-90's and has been free to access for everybody since day one – and will stay free for as long as I run it.
But that doesn't mean that it's free to run.
It costs money to drive a large site like this.
