Rest In Peace Jack Gartside
Whenever I thinking of fly fishing, one man comes to mind. Jack Gartside. Although I only met and fished with the man once, he left a ever lasting impression. He lived and breathed fishing like no one else I’ve ever met. It’s with great sadness that I share his passing here today. After a lengthy battle with lung cancer, he passed away December 5th.

You will be missed my friend.
