Parker Pages and American Fly Fisher
 

A notice in the current American Fly Fisher, the Journal of the American Museum of Fly Fishing, provides that our recent inclusive article on the Parker-Hawes rods is now in the library of the museum.

The American Museum of Fly Fishing preserves the history of fly fishing and has a scholarly quarterly journal. Its directors and supporters include Paul Volcker ( past Federal Reserve chairman) , noted author Paul Schullery , and Orvis chairman Leigh Perkins.

The Parker Pages article was provided to the museum by Austin Hogan, whose father was the founding curator of the museum.

thanks for the reminder Bruce, I was thinking that article would be of interest to the Catskills Fly Fishing Museum and our annual Bammboo Rod Makers gathering there.

Great! I hope to get to the Colorado Cane Conclave in August. Mellow people and interesting rods. I'm sure its the same there.

Thanks, Bruce. There are also two very good articles on hard rubber, gutta percha and other cast goods in the last rwo issues.

Best, Austin

Right Austin - terrific articles! A lot of great information in them.
