An amazing 6 part series on the history of fly fishing. If anything watch the "after dinner" speech video in part 6. This is worth watching for all fishermen.

Editor's note: Back in 2011, we featured entries from Gordon M. Wickstrom's The History of Fishing for Trout with Artificial Flies in Britain and America: A Chronology of Five Hundred Years, 1496 to 2000. In this chronology, Gordon marks significant events—the publication of seminal books, tackle developments, important social changes, the dissemination of trout species beyond their native ranges, etc.—on both sides of the Atlantic. Since many readers were not around in those heady early days of the blog, I thought it deserves a repost.
