Recollections IV John Goddard and Brian Clarke - In Progress

This is the fourth in the series of Recollections and features two of the iconic game angers of our time. John Goddard is best-known for his works on fly-fishing entomology (notably Trout Fly Recognition and Trout Flies of Still Water) and acquired an international reputation as a designer of trout flies.He is also well-known to coarse anglers as a designer and manufacturer of fishing tackle through his company, Efgeeco  Brian Clarke is Angling Correspondent of The Times  and author, among others, of The Pursuit of Stillwater Trout, the first complete methodology for nymph fishing on lakes to appear in print. The two long-time friends will forever be linked for their collaboration in The Trout and the Fly, which Richard Walker described as “a great work…likely to prove the most important contribution to the literature of trout fishing this (the 20^th) century”.

Recollections IV charts the lives of the two men from the excitements of their first fish as boys, through the experiences, relationships and influences which individually shaped them, to their status as angling giants today.
