    Default THE CHRONICLER'S FAIR WELL - Neil - Jan 12, 2020

    THE CHRONICLER'S FAIR WELL

    ?I, The Chronicler, taught angler?s knowledge, and I pondered, searched out and arranged many articles. The Chronicler sought to find appropriate words and to write words of truth correctly. Words of wise anglers are like goads, and masters of these words are like well-driven nails. However, my fellow anglers, be warned: the writing of the many books is endless, and excessive devotion to books is wearying to the body.? [Loose Paraphrase from The

    Thank you for all the time and energy which you have put into FAOL and fly fishing over the years.

    Thank you Neil for all you've done to care for Ladyfisher's cyber baby. For the last 22 years I have gleaned more information from FAOL than I ever would have on my own. I can't count the times I have led new fly fishers to FAOL for guidance. For all of that, what's more, is the lifelong friends I've made because of Jim's, Deanna's, your and Ron Tidd's tireless efforts. Thank you for 22 years of family. My profile says that I joined in 2005, but that's when I changed my name. I first joined in 1998 under the name jlsanders225.

    Where you go is less important than how you take the steps.

    what's more, is the lifelong friends I've made
    I can attest to that .. here here! Joe my old friend
    I would bet I could mention several Names from years past
    that would bring good memories , I recall many of them,
    No sour notes or regrets well maybe just one,

    Many years ago I fished the Teton area , as I was driving to the
    stream I drove by car stuck in the ditch,, well normally I would of
    stopped to help but I was on my way to the stream. and that guy
    stuck in the ditch was one less guy on the stream.. lol
    Turned out it was Mark , I think he posted a photo here and I recognized
    it. So Mark I apologize,
    I caught my limit that day, quite possibly thanks to you!

    Just saw this. I don't visit the site as often as I used to.

    Thank you Neil for all that you have done to keep this site one of the true gems in the vast internet of things.

    Although initially ominous to me and others, the "FAIR WELL" post seems to have been a bit premature. FAOL, thankfully, goes on without any symptoms of gasping for air, I'm happy to see.
