The term 'to influence' is used a little too easily these days although it is definitely correct to use this when describing my guest - Howard Croston.
There is little doubt Howard has had an impact on us as fly anglers either directly or indirectly over the years.
From designing rods for Hardy and Greys for a number of years to the articles he has written giving us an insight into the techniques used at the very highest levels of competition fishing that have helped shape us as fly anglers.
We discuss what goes into rod design, his fly fishing timeline, what it is like not to do well in a competition and how to deal with it to what it feels like to be fly fishing world champion.
This is an honest and open look into the mindset of someone who has a great dedication to our pastime, we're lucky to have him in fly fishing.
