John Shewey has made more of an impact in my fly-tying progress than any other human being could ever hope to.  As the author of Spey Flies and Dee Flies, his book guided my early steelhead fly-tying days, and even his more recent book, Classic Steelhead Flies, has further improved my time and enjoyment behind the vise.  The man is a wealth of knowledge and he has dedicated his life to the pursuit of steelhead and the angling history they bring us.  I met with John in Oregon in an attempt to bring his words to life, away from the pages and here for you on Anchored.
