Site Support Auction! Bob Quigley and Polly Rosborough DVDs

[gusstrand]

I was looking for a DVD to watch today - had a wisdom tooth pulled and a crown done and some other stuff yesterday so today I'm chillin' with my pain meds... Anyway, I found these three DVD's and decided to do a little smallstreams site support auction!



These are Region 1 DVD's so overseas bidders will need that playback capability. This thread will serve as the auction thread for each one individually. To place a bid on a DVD, post the number of the DVD in the photo you are bidding on, and how much your bid is for that DVD. Please use bid increments of at least $0.50 if you are bidding higher than someone else who previously posted.

I will ship the winners their DVD's anywhere in the world as part of the winning bid (no additional charge.)

The starting bid on each DVD is $20.

This auction will go until 12 noon CST, December 25th. At that time the winning bidders can pay for their winnings via the paypal donation button and I will mail their DVD's the week of 12/27.

Thanks in advance for your support!

- Tom Chandler, The Trout Underground

DVD#2 Fishing Bob Quigley's Signature Flies

“This DVD is superb, excellent in every way.”
- John Randolph, publisher of Fly Fisherman Magazine

“The camera work is exceptional. The macro photography is cinematic poetry. The extensive variety of camera angles, composition, and position both in the boat and on the river are creative and very supportive of telling your "river story".

Bob is a natural at talking to the camera. He's so interesting to listen to, so clear in his purpose, and so entertaining in his presentation that you're with it all the way. What a joy to watch this guy passing on his knowledge so that the viewer might have a successful try on the river one day.”
- Gregory Gontz, Film editor for NCIS, CBS

"In my opinion Bob Quigley is the most innovative creator of effective dry flies ever. But what really makes this video shine is not so much his tying but the ability to have the viewer sit ring-side and watch the master fish his patterns as they were meant to be fished. A well-rounded stream-side production that is exciting, informative and bound to make the viewer a better angler."
- Ken Morrish
