On this episode of the BackCast Podcast, John & Richard sit down for a great conversation with Vic Johnson. Vic has a number of books to his credit, including Eight Points of Light, Fiberglass Fly Rods the Evolution of the Modern Fly Rod From Bamboo to Graphite, Fenwick: Fenwick's History and Rods, Including the Development of the First Graphite Rod and others.
John Randolph (Editor Emeritus of Fly Fisherman Magazine) has offered this in praise of Vic’s work, “…reading of your history of fly lines, birth and death of Fenwick, fly rods, and more. Your research on all these subjects is the best ever written on the broad histories of our sport. I wish I had read them 30 years ago when I began my Editor/Publisher work at Fly Fisherman magazine. No one has done a better job in this area of research/writing on our sport.”
We agree and we’re certain you’ll enjoy all the various aspects of this special conversation!
Please mark your calendars and plan to attend our Art Sale on September the 10th. The proceeds will provide this year's funding for our scholarships. We have some amazing pieces that we are certain you'll want to take home!
