  • From density to core and coating, Buzz Bryson simplifies the process of choosing the right fly line for your fishing style and usage on Fly Fishing in Salt Water.
  • When veteran Josh Williams lost his right arm in an accident in Fort Hood, Texas, he gained a new sport and outlook on life: “Fly fishing does more for me than all the medicines on the market,” Williams said in a recent profile piece by Bill Cochran in The Roanoke Times.
