It's been an honor to have grown up fishing and sharing this river alongside such a legend as Frank Moore. The North Umpqua is forever part of my soul.
Frank Moore- I wonder if you knew my Grandfather Harold Barker, or my Grandma Doris Barker? My dad is Bill Barker. My Grandpa helped build the North Umpqua Trail. This is a wonderful video! Love this! Thank you for sharing!
FRANK DIED at age 98. BURNED OUT : Franks cabin burned down in 2020 in the big forest fire .😑. Most of the Steelhead holes and runs were named by Frank himself.
one year I was maintaining a booth at the fly fishing show in bellevue, gave my spell yo this nice old lady, she turns and leaves dragging her husband to come back and meet me, that was frank, a very special man
Question: why do so many of the “old guard” fly fish switch handed? I am NOT beating him, he is a legend. I genuinely curious why so many cast with one and then switch over to reel in with that same hand. 🤷♂️
Inspiration right there.
I deployed twice, but never saw combat.
Now I spend my days fly fishing. Spend a lot of time on the Metolius River.
Thank you for sharing this gentleman and his love of the river. Beautiful story.
What a beautiful testament to life and the gift of the river.

South Oregon need a lot of help with Klamath River. Power Companies have a death grip on water and power !
Nearly dead, down to 3 %.
