Biography & Thoughts
I am now retired, having spent 36 years in the Research Area of Bell Telephone Laboratories. My own technical work and immersion among many excellent scientists has given me a good background in a wide variety of fields including acoustics, optics, and computer graphics. For the past 25 years I have taught fly tying at my local TU Chapter, Central Jersey Trout Unlimited. In my classes I always try to provide a deep understanding of not only the mechanics of the tying of a fly but also of the effective fishing techniques for it. I am hoping that my participation in this Forum will help me continue these practices in my classes and also bring some insights to other Forum members.
