A.A. Survey - The Future of Fly Fishing

A few months ago American Angler posted a survey on their website entitled "The Future of Fly Fishing" asking readers this question...

"Who are the faces of fly fishing’s future? Where are the anglers, explorers, fly tiers, film makers, and conservationists who are making fly fishing not only a sport, but their life’s calling?"


Recently I sat back and started counting up the number of people under 40 years of age that I knew from the couple of forums that contribute, the ever growing list of writers, bloggers, photographers, videographers, artists, and committed fish bums that I knew who are already trying to make the right decisions get noticed within the industry. Maybe this survey will help in it's own way.

So, if you have a few minutes between now and the end of December take a few minutes to send along your choices. There is a new generation in fly fishing and they are approaching the sport from a noticeably different angle and perspective.
