Fly Fishing People: Leslie Wrixon

The lessons of many years as a long distance runner fuel the fly tying passions of Leslie Wrixon, who was the official fly tyer of Team USA for the 2006 Fly Fishing World Championships in Portugal. "She had grown up watching her grandfather fly-fish in the Catskills. At age 35, she bought a fly tying kit at Cabela's. 'It totally came to me,' she said. 'It feels like I've been doing it my whole life.'" In the Hartford, Connecticut Courant.
