Dedication

This book wouldn’t be possible without untold hall passes and undying patience on the part of my wife and best friend, Patricia Grindley Calvillo. After many years as a photographer, she let me chase another dream, producing a book about my third passion, fly-fishing. She sacrificed with me and took road trips that weren’t to Hawaii or Europe to help me finish the project. I can’t thank her enough.

Acknowledgements

Thanks to my fishing buddies, Joe Radloff, Brian Dixon, Nate Taylor, and my brother-in-law Matt Hoffman who appear in the book. Thanks to Steve Cridland and Guide Gifford Maythem for insisting I get a license, rent boots and fly-fish the first time in Aspen. Also Dave Hughes and Scott Richmond for encouraging me and suggesting improvements to the book. Thanks to Glenn Groglio for an incredible amount of patience and creative direction. I’d be remiss if I didn’t thank Jason, Jack and Mr. Jones at Northwest Fly-Fishing Outfitters for their never ending ribbing. Thanks to the being that created trout and the beautiful places they swim and those who fight to keep those places safe.
