CFFA tomorrow, Edison wrap-up, back to the Book

A reminder that tomorrow, Saturday, February 1, is the CFFA Expo at Nomad’s in South Windsor, 9am-3pm. I’ll be on Tier’s Row, and speaking at 1:30pm on Fly Fishing CT’s Small Streams. See you there!

Edison Fly Fishing Show redux: Another fantastic show. Of all the shows I do, this one’s my favorite. Both my talks, Finding Small Stream Nirvana, and Wet Flies 101, were very well attended — if you saw me speak, thanks for coming. Thanks also to everyone who took my classes — you were an enthusiastic, attentive group. And if you snagged me on the show floor while I was running to another gig, my apologies for having to take off so quickly. I bought some Renomed scissors and some wet fly capes I needed. Good stuff.

You probably know this guy. The Fly Fishing Show remains one of the best opportunities for you to meet and speak with and learn from some of the best, most knowledgeable fly fishers in the world.
Wu’s Shanghai Dumpling in Edison. It’s what’s for dinner. Every year, I look forward to getting my spicy pork dumpling and spicy pork Udon fix. Authentic and delicious!
Speaking of Tom Rosenbauer, you should listen to his Orvis podcast with my buddy Josh Miller. Josh is a fairly new friend, and what I’ve learned so far is that he’s an incredibly pleasant, very fishy guy who knows a ton about fly fishing. Aside from speaking and tying and teaching, my favorite part of the show is making new friends and seeing old ones. I got to know a bunch of my fellow “Celebrities” this year that I really hadn’t spent any time with before, and it made for some already fond memories.

Last but not least, the Christmas/New Year hiatus is over. I have resumed work on the Fly Fishing Guide to the Farmington River book –it’s not going to write itself — and that means I’ll be getting back to one or two posts a week while I focus on that project. I appreciate your patience.
