Update 2017

Fly fishing world wide especially Alaska and small private waters from Vermont USA down to Cabo San Lucas have been a focus. Bamboo fly rods expensive and rare have been constant companions. Oil painting and super motorcycle riding in my home city San Francisco California have been continued life long passions.

This fly fishing column begun in 1999 has run almost continuously. Fly column will be published six times a year. On several occasions in last decade Quill fiction almost became a movie. Talks continue. Paris France and the small streams and creeks near the city have become constants. Traveling and fly fishing, taking photos, oil painting, chess are my usual activities as they have been since early 1950s.

“Adventures Of Fletcher Quill “ has become one of the longest running fiction serials on the world wide web. As of 2017 the only long running fly fiction in the world. My life has been spent mostly alone fly fishing on many of the most coveted waters on planet Earth.
