Jim McLennan is a well known fly fisherman, author and instructor. Jim was one of the first guides on Alberta's legendary Bow River, working the river from 1976-1982. During that time Jim introduced many famous fly fishers to the wonders of the Bow including Leigh Perkins, Lefty Kreh, A.J. McClane, Ernest Schwiebert, and Charles Waterman.. He has written three books about fly fishing. Blue Ribbon Bow was initially published in coffee-table format in 1987, and received the Outdoor Book of the Year Award from the Outdoor Writers of Canada. This edition is now out of print, but a revised and updated edition was published in 1998. Trout Streams of Alberta, a Canadian best-seller, was published in 1996 and received the Andy Russell Nature Writing Award. His latest book, Fly Fishing Western Trout Streams, was published by Stackpole in 2003. Jim's writing appears frequently in major outdoor magazines, including Fly Fisherman, for whom he is Editor At Large. Lynda McLennan has fly-fished in her home province of Alberta since 1976. A natural teacher, she has taught fly fishing for shops and at fly fishing gatherings since 1985. She was a founding director of Casting For Life, a weekend fly fishing retreat for breast cancer survivors. Though her home waters are in southern Alberta, she has fly-fished many places in Western Canada, the U.S. and New Zealand. Her photography appears frequently in numerous outdoor magazines.
