Ken,
Thanks for your fine Article! Dave Whitlock has always been a important inspiration to me. For the past 35 yrs Dave's work as a Flyfisher and Artist have meant a lot to me. I had a few fishing personalities to emulate and Dave was the one I picked. Dave brought a new way of looking at flyfishing and it got my attention. His hopper pattern has always been my favorite. Dave's behavior is what is most important, because he has been a great ambassador for flyfishing. I hope Dave and Emily have happiness and peace.
Doug
