“It was a great program. I would like to hear more of his stories. He was very humorous and he was great explaining his patterns. I believe I will build some for my tackle box. I look forward to relistening to his comments from your archive.”
“Listening to Ed, one of the old masters, was spellbinding. The show was very very enjoyable. I'm glad that I just finished tying up a dozen ants. Can't wait to get to the river and put into pratice what I learned from Ed. It doesn't get any better than learning from a fly fisher with his experience.”
“A wonderful show, Roger. Ed is an absolutely delightful man who really knows his fishing, and doesn't over-think so much, as alot of anglers might. I met his friend Joe Humphreys once and have always been impressed by those Pennsylvanian Fishermen. Ed gave us a new attitude toward fishing terrestrials and I am excited about trying out some of his ideas, especially his cricket pattern and use of it. Thanks again for being the absolutely best Podcast on the Internet, bar none.”
“I was not able to listen live but will get it on your web site. The reason I am writting is to say a few words about Ed. He would not remember me but he is a guy I will never forget. I talked to Ed a few times back in the 70's on the Letort. He was without a doubt the best on that very tough stream. He could fool the trout and it was a pleasure watching a master at work. I watched some pretty good fisherman there, but none had the touch like Ed. He was able to put his fly in places that I could never think of fishing. This was with a fly rod with very tall weeds behind him. I hope he continues to fish. What a kind guy to help a young fisherman like myself. Good luck to you Ed and catch one for me.”
“I was excited to hear Mr. Shenk was going to be on your internet radio show. The fact that he lives near my former home made it more special.
I've been in Florida for 20 years and I recently started tying foam terrestrials aimed at Bass and panfish, primarily learning from the Steeves and Morris books. I found Mr. Shenk's opinions about foam versus traditional materials interesting and informative.
I enjoy your show and thank you very much for letting us listen to a great fisherman. ”
“I enjoyed listening to Ed Shenk discuss Fly Fishing with terrestrials. It was good to hear his views on patterns and materials. I prefer natural materials over foam myself. Keep up the good work guys.
”
“ I listened to the 'replay' on my computer, as on Wed. I was fishing Vermont's Battenkill and Mettowee. The show was one of the better interviews for me. I met Ed in Carlisle at the COLD SPRING ANGLER shop & was able to buy his book and have it autographed on the spot. Anecdotal stories were a big plus. Bring him back sometime, please. ”
“I think it was a very informative show. I have met Ed Shenk several times and have both his book and his video and a fly tied by him he is always a pleasure to listen to”
“Great show. Neat to hear all of the history of flyfishing in PA with legends like Joe Humphreys and like Ed Shenk is himself. I know now that his favorite fly is a size #14 Letort Cricket; and that a good flyfisher can still catch fish using only a one fly rig. Thanks Ed for such an enjoyable evening!”
“Enjoyed very much. I have used some crickets a few weeks ago in MO for smallmouth and worked great. Very informative show and great stories and suggestions. ”
“Thank you for having Mr. Shemk on your program. I enjoyed his understanding of terrestrials and ability to describe answers for my questions. Thank you also for allowing listeners to the opportunity to hear previous programs.”
“Hi- The show with Ed reminded me to ask whether you coudl get Joe Humphreys on to do a show at some point? I was able to meet Joe at one of the Denver fly fishing shows - had a great conversation with him, and I think he would make a great guest.
”
“I listened to the recorded version so I had time to rewind and pick up missing points. Overall, I was disappointed with Mr. Shenk. This is a gentlemen obviously full of experience and fly fishing information, yet he seemed to hold back. He often talked of past articles he had written and an upcoming article. I felt he was keeping us listeners away from the information, and wanted us to buy whatever magazine. Would have liked to hear him talk more about presentation and stalking the fish. Even when those questions were asked, he went down a different trail. I still love your show....it is by far the best on the internet, Keep up the good work.”
“I enjoyed Ed's discussion. He answered my question and gave us a really good tip as well. I have Ed's Video "Master of the Letort" and enjoy his candor very much. He was a very good guest. I enjoy the old time perspective. I would suggest Joe Humphreys as a future guest.”
