SilverDoctor Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 Fished the Adirondack's in the 70's, where some great streams down there and met some great fly tiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigalcal Posted July 23, 2016 Share Posted July 23, 2016 The family used to camp at Rollins Pond near Tupper Lake and I used to watch fly fishermen at nearby Whey Pond and wanted to try it. That's how I started...mid 70's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDoctor Posted July 23, 2016 Author Share Posted July 23, 2016 Fished through the Ausable, Saranac & Chateaugay etc.. Beautiful country in the fall. Spent a few rainy days at the Ausable fly shop with Fran Betters it was a great experience on very haunting waters. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverDoctor Posted July 24, 2016 Author Share Posted July 24, 2016 Joan Wulff is one of only two living members of the founders of the Catskills center 35 years ago. She's 90 years old and still fishing and teaching fly casting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigalcal Posted July 27, 2016 Share Posted July 27, 2016 Fran Better's.... there's a name from the past!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverDoctor Posted July 28, 2016 Author Share Posted July 28, 2016 Really nice guy, full of knowledge and a very original tier. Only used natural materials. Still have a few of his flies and a fly rod he built and gave to me for helping tie in the shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
