This is Episode 100!!! - I'm happy to share a chat I had with one of the greatest people in the history of fly fishing. Joan Wulff shares her great story and how she came to make a life in fly fishing even before she met Lee Wulff.
We talk about how to double haul correctly, her first job with Garcia in the early days, how she toured the fly fishing show sequence, and how she built a fly fishing school that is still going strong today.
