Thirty Years of Fly Rod & Reel

By , About.com GuideOctober 30, 2009

Follow me on:

Just read that Fly Rod & Reel magazine is celebrating its 30th anniversary.

As I wrote in a previous post about the inaugural edition The Flyfish Journal, it's good to see some quality fly fishing magazines are still alive and well.

I respect Fly Rod & Reel because it's one of those magazines I grew up with -- in fact, I was born only a couple years before Fly Rod & Reel first hit the newsstands in 1979.

Lee Wulff's great back-page "Wulff's Run" columns were always a must read, the last of which ran in the Jan./Feb. 1992 issue shortly after he died in a plane crash.

If you never had a chance to read any of Wulff's work, it's definitely worth looking up.
