Al Campbells archives is wonderful!! He had a way of writing that put you right out there stream side! It's fun to recognize the areas from verse and picture, that I have the good fortune of fishing, and had fishing with him.

Oh, Steve! So do I. So much!

I miss the days Al and I would message one another about fly tying issues I was having. He always made himself available to help. I credit Al for helping me become a fly tyer. He turned me on to Harry Mason (another long pasted member) who lived closed by. I took several classes from Harry allowing me to build on the skills Al imparted on me.

Yes, Indeed Al Campbell was instrumental and set the interest in fly tying
to a new level , and through Jim and Dee's writing styles and others, over time
those articles and posts married peoples mind and soul to the sport of
fly-fishing for life..
This is what keeps me so enamored with this particular site , its the quality of
the people I have met through it.
And more than ever the young at heart that visit here now days can enjoy
the fruits from its past , and it's current events..

It may not feel like it once did for us with hindsight , but the written words
within indeed are everlasting.
I suspect there will be much more..

I know I am a better fly fisherman because of FAOL...

Dee would be thrilled to know that the website she started over 20+ years ago is still providing information about the sport of fly-fishing that makes her readers better anglers and better people. For many of us we have many good memories of our fly-fishing experiences. Preserve those memories, for when all else has been said they are all that we have left.

I have referred several folks to his tying series and have received good feedback about it.

I hardly ever make any comments but I very much enjoy this site. She indeed did a great service to many that she never even knew about.
