Thought you might appreciate seeing this.

I was blessed to be interviewed on a podcast to share some perspectives on fly fishing from my engineering background and 57 years of fly fishing. Great fun.

We kind of geeked out for a while - so the interview is broken into two parts. Part 1 released today, Part 2 will come soon.

LCTU members will hear many connections, and my time with TTFR FFi . I trust you all have heard the Joe Cambridge quote at very end of Part one.

Many thanks to many of you who have dialogued with me, fished with me, and taught me so much.
