In this podcast we chat to Steve Cooper, the owner of UK based "Cockshill Flytying". Originally a science teacher, Steve is a greta example of what happens when you allow your feather fetish to go rogue on you. He is the only man I know who can skin an English partridge in 72 seconds...

Tom Sutcliffe is a gentle giant in the South African flyfishing landscape. Few local flyfishermen have had the impact on the sport that Tom has. In many ways Tom has been a mentor to me.

In the episode we talk to him about his journey in flyfishing, his love of art, and his way with a pen.
