linesidesonthefly - i do the same .. it often amazes me to think of how fliesandfins.com has been directly and indirectly for my growth as a fly fisherman, my growth of networks of friends, a better understand of all sorts of fisheries/methods/flies etc.... and i am amazed equally by the things i have YET to learn, do and experience ... for me, flies and fins has become an extension of my fly rod and my time on the water ... and it is unbelievably cool to hear that it has done the same for you and others ... yah sure, maybe i started the site and crafted up some technology that fits nicely within the world of fly fishing .... but in the end ... all technology is meaningless without the people and the heart and soul ... technology and a "website" in and of itself worthless without the human elements ... and above all else its the people aspects and the heart and soul of flies and fins and fly fishing that i love most .................... but, in all sincerety, without everyone out there .. and without every species of fish and fly from all stretches of the globe ...... flies and fins would be just another website...

Thanks to Jeremy as well as I would never have filmed my experiences and in turn shown them to my new friends here at F&F. Thanks for the inspiration, I think you have more to do with the sense of community than you give yourself credit.
