    Default Some Bing Lempke Flies

    Here is a picture of some of Bing's flies.

    I met him in Last Chance, Idaho in the early 1980's. He was self-taught in aquatic insects. I spent an evening with him in the old Challet Bar there in Last Chance. At that time he was tying at the FFF Conclave in nearby West Yellowstone.

    Winner of the Buzzek (sp?) award and once featured in Time Magazine, he was an extremely talented and interesting man.

    Today, there is a memorial in the parking lot at the head of the Harriman Railroad Ranch to him which was designed by Rene Harrop.
