This week I found out that a man who was instrumental in my taking up fly fishing passed away.

I can say that he played a big part in my appreciation for fishing even though he and I never were on the water together once. He mentored and helped along one of my best friends, and that relationship led my friend to introduce me to fishing.

Today I briefly share that story, and talk a little bit about some of the ways that you can invest in the life of a young person through fly fishing. It isn't for everyone, but for those who can do it it is a great way to do some real good.
