Either speak up or get off the water

Sam Snyder takes no prisoners in this brilliant post on the connection between fly fishing and conservation.

The future of our fisheries depend upon diverse communities, diverse fisheries, and diverse thinking. If you cherish your habit, religion, sport, or whatever you want to call it, I am inclinded to say that you have no business in this sport if you don't take conservation seriously.

Headwaters of History

Long time Chum faithful Dr. Sam Snyder joins the family with a peek into the past.

Today, the sport is filled with state of the art technology, glitzy media, and flashy films. Amidst all of this, sometimes we forget to look backward and appreciate all of those streams that feed today's fly fishing river. With that in mind, I hope that this blog will bring snipptes of history to the contemporary fly fisher. In doing so, my goal is to make history relevant and interesting to today's fly fishers. I will explore topics ranging from technology to conservation, from heroes to anonymous anglers. I hope you will join me in my journeys as I wade into the various headwaters of our sport.
