Show Notes

In this episode we Wadeoutthere with Simon Gawesworth, from Washington state.  Simon grew up teaching fly fishing at an early age at his father’s fly fishing school in England.  He has spent his life traveling the world, learning, and teaching fly fishing in the form of classes, books, shows, events, schools, and articles, and most recently as an instructor for Far Bank. 

We discuss some of the differences between US and English fly culture, why spey casting is a wonderful tool for all fly fishers, and Simon’s love of teaching.
