Meeting the Flyfishing Cognoscenti

Over in Evergreen last weekend I meet some notable flyfishing authors at the Blue Quill Angler. I chatted with John Gierach, Ed Engle, (pictured to the left) and John Barr, to name a few.

I brought my daughter along. She was extremely shy and would hardly say a word. The guys joked that most fly fisherman have that effect on women. I thought for a moment then commented that I wished it would work that way at home with my wife. They all laughed for a minute then silently nodded their heads in agreement. Good thing the room was full of guys and my daughter who wouldn't tell on me.
