About the Actor
---------------
Joan Wulff is widely recognized as the first lady of fly fishing.
She won the New Jersy Sub-Junior Dry Fly Championship at age 12,
only a few years before winning her first national title. She
went on to win an international and 17 national championships
over the next 16 years -- casting a fly an incredible 161 feet!
In 1979 Joan and her husband, Lee, started their dream, the Wulff
School of Fishing. She has loved sharing her passion for
fly-fishing to students and instructors for over 65 years, and is
known and respected around the world as a superb fly caster and
teacher. She hosts the Joan Wulff's Dyanmics of Fly Casting DVD
-- what many consider the best and most successful video about
teaching fly casting. She also appears as the host in the DVD,
Why Fly Fishing, along with other notables such as John Geierach,
Flip Pallot and Nich Lyons. Joan continues to be the recipient of
numerous awards relating to her efforts in both the fishing
industry and conservation.
Is good casting necessary? As Joan says, "If you don't know
where the fish lie, but can cast to cover the water with finesse,
you are likely to catch fish. If you know where they lie, but can
neither reach them nor present the fly naturally, you are not
even in the game."
