The Adventures, Obsession, and Evolution of a Fly Fisherman THIS WEEK author Dylan Tomine offers an excerpt from his latest book "Headwaters," a collection of thoughtful and sometimes humorous stories chronicling the joys and pains of fly fishing, the challenges of fatherhood, and a connection to home rivers. INSIDE THE BOX: EPISODE #92 - This week Scott unboxes a cool bamboo rod and reel combo from Headwaters. The Henrys Fork rod is made of hand-split and hand-planed Tonkin bamboo. And like all rods from Headwaters, it utilizes a "historical" taper. In this week's featured tying video Tim Flagler ties the Henryville Special. "It's a caddis fly imitation created in the 1930s by Hiram Brobst for use on the Henryville section of Broadhead Creek in the Pocono Mountains of eastern Pennsylvania." |
