Tim Romano and I will both be taking part in the “School of Trout” next week on the Henry’s Fork in Idaho. Granted, you could call the Henry’s Fork itself the School of Trout, because it’s easy to get taught a lesson or two there by the fish, whenever you visit. But I’m talking about Todd Tanner’s School of Trout, which is brilliant in concept and an important example on a number of levels.
We’ve been taking part for several years now, and it’s become the highlight of our year, because 1) the instructors inevitably learn a lot from the students, and it’s a great way of keeping in tune with interests, and 2) it’s about sparking a genuine passion and deep respect for fly fishing, and it doesn’t get any more important than that.
All of which is to meant to congratulate Todd and his team on another great effort, and add congratulations and thanks to all of you who make a point to involve TEACHING and MENTORING in your fly-fishing endeavors.

Thanks, Kirk. That’s awfully kind of you. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you, and Tim, taking the time to join us every year on the Henry’s Fork. See you soon! — Todd
