Hello fellow fishers,
By way of completing my introduction (sort of) and at the request of several
readers, I off the following names for the autobiographies that helped form
my own.
Thanks, everyone, for reading.
As a frightening Halloween gift, a photo is attached, taken by a fellow
fisher, that will help you put a face to at least one of the names involved.
All the best,
--John
