Christopher Bantick writes in The Australian about fishing with an old-school Scottish guide and about the secret history of a fly.
“Beyond the Blae and Black being a fabled and coveted fly, Angus’s daughter, immobile and housebound, knew more about trout behaviour than most anglers in a lifetime of fishing. She was a kind of Highland trout guru. More than once I went to her to solve a streamside problem.”
