A Celebration of Friends and Great Times 

There are times when even fly fishermen get dressed up. But in this case it's for other fly fishermen at the Fly Fishers of Harrisburg Banquet. Always a good time if not too long a night for the next day with only average food but with great speakers and great camaraderie. This photo says it all.

Fly Fishing Buddies: Harrisburg Fly Fishers Banquet

Not a stock brokers convention but the Fly Fishers of Harrisburg gathering with the late brother Zyg, Al Stansberry and friends. 

Sometimes you meet people of great modesty. Tommy Thomas was such a person. He was the fly fishing companion of Charlie Fox, Rossy Trimmer, and Joe Brooks just to name a few. He was always a blast and I miss him dearly. He gave me his secret sunken ants and I tied him my secret nymph patterns to fish out west. Just a class act all the way.

Fly Fishing Buddies:Tommy Thomas

The late Tommy Thomas at the Fly Fishers of Harrisburg gathering. Here with one of my fine cigars. Tommy was the fishing buddy of Charlie Fox, Joe Brooks and Ross Trimmer just to name a few. An absolute gem of a man and fisherman. 

Even in his later days Charlie Fox was always the consummate gentleman. Here at the Letort Picnic in has later days Charlie walked with the help of cane but loved coming to the picnics and obviously enjoyed the great company of fishing friends.

Fly Fishing Buddies: Charlie Fox

The late Charlie Fox enjoys a great conversation at the Letort Regulars' Picnic. Charlie just loved these times. 

 

Two fly fishing legends signing books. I tried to get Ed to laugh but I missed it in the photo.
