Remembering John Alden Knight the Fly Rod Mentor
A son reflects on his father John Alden Knight, detailing their bond through fishing, writing, and collaboration. He recalls Knight’s patient genius shaping dry flies, nymphs, and the Solunar Tables, and vows to live up to his example without mourning him. The tribute blends personal memory with admiration for a man who never sought riches but left a lasting craft.

Littler Tops Memphis Open With Third Straight 66
Gene Littler surged into the third round lead of the Memphis Open by shooting his third consecutive 66 to reach 12 under par 198. Bert Yancey, tied for lead, struggled with a double bogey but finished with an eagle on the 18th to stay within one stroke. Yancey birdied late while Littler blamed a par on 18 after a drive into a ditch and a trap, two-putting from 16 feet.
