  • After learning of the death of Oliver Edwards I ventured out on to my local beat of the River Wharfe to fish spiders and to pay a person tribute to one of the greatest North Country anglers of his generation. The spiders worked a treat, but best of all his signature Edwards' Baetis Nymph worked supreme. #flyfishing #oliveredwards #troutfishing

    Mr. Smith, that was a very respectful thing to do. Something that has almost gone extinct in today`s culture. I really enjoy your videos of fishing and fly tying. Thank you for making them because I know it is not easy.

    Oliver Edwards was the best fly tyer ever, I have been tying flies for over sixty years and still watch his excellent videos.

    Oliver Edwards is the reason I became interested in tying and fishing North Country Spiders. I've watched most if not all of his videos on UA-cam and found them relaxing and educational. Now I watch yours. I like your tying and presentation style. Thanks for keeping Mr. Edwards' legacy in mind. I'm sure you will continue it in your own way. Thank you!

    Hello from New England USA- to say that Oliver has been a massive influence on my fly fishing and tying would be an understatement, hell my dog is even named "Oliver". I am truly saddened to hear of his passing.

    A Fine Tribute. I watched Oliver for Years. Probably the most Learned Fly Fisherman, Fly Tier and Entomologists I ever saw.

    So sorry to hear of the passing of Oliver Edwards. I discovered his essential skills videos when I was just getting started in 2015, not knowing at the time how influential he was in the fly fishing world. RIP

    Great tribute to Mr. Edwards. I've learned a lot from you both. Hope to fish Yorkshire before I die. NC Spiders have become my love and work great on our West Virginia streams. One question though. I thought I would be met with eternal damnation swinging a NC Spider. You are the expert so please school me.
