Personal
Information

 For almost 60 years, I have been a serious fly
fishing devotee, with considerable experience fishing
waters in the western United States.
 Through our many trips to Chile, my friends, family,
and I have become enchanted with Chilean Patagonia and
have made many friends there. We now have a vacation
home there, and plan on spending our Chilean summers in
Coyhaique, Chile.
All questions, suggestions, and comments are welcomed
and appreciated.
