Darrel Martin

I met Darrel at one of the first FFF Oregon Fly Tying Expos in Eugene. He taught me, Rocky and John how to tie a woven dragon fly nymph pattern. Great guy. Fantastic fly tier.... I still have the fly he tied.

I just heard the sad news that Darrel Martin passed away last week. Darrel authored several books including "Micropatterns - Tying and Fishing the Small Fly" and "The Flyfisher's Companion".

I can't find an obit or any other information about the passing of Darrel Martin. Surely such a noted and accomplished angler and writer deserves an obit. Was there one somewhere that I missed? The very brief biodata on some of his books only says that he was a retired English teacher. Where did he teach? I took a workshop from him at an FFI convention where he taught us how to make hooks, tie antique fly patterns, furl leaders, and more.
