Just saw where Lefty Kreh passed way today. RIP Lefty,
Lefty most certainly was a legend in the fly fishing world. May he RIP.
Pretty cool guy in addition to his incredible abilities with a fly rod! Distinguished himself in a serious warrior unit and a few little things like that. Frostbite from an Alaskan training exercise is why you NEVER saw him doing anything but warmwater fishing. wink
Wow. Sad to hear it. I met him several years ago at one of our local fly fishing shows. He truly changed fly fishing.

RIP
I had the pleasure of fly fishing the Susquehanna for smallmouth bass with Bob closer and lefty

Heck of a nice guy

REALLY good fisherman , great fly tier
Sad to hear. Tight lines Lefty, rest in peace!
I also met Lefty many years ago in Baltimore when he did a seminar for local tackle dealers from a recent trip to Alaska. He was a class act all the way.
