AMFF: Rik Hafer Chosen as the 2021 Austin Hogan Award Recipient.

 

The Austin Hogan Award was created to recognize exemplary contributions to our quarterly publication, The American Fly Fisher. “How Rainbow Trout Came to Missouri (and Your State Too)” is an uncommonly fine piece of historical research, extremely worthy of this prestigious award.

 

 

Too often, the history of fly fishing includes repetitions of erroneous conventional wisdom. “How Rainbow Trout Came to Missouri (and Your State Too)” on the other hand, is a truly encyclopedic review of rainbow trout rearing and stocking in the US, and testimony to its accuracy is to be found in numerous footnotes, which will provide inestimable assistance to future researchers.
