Coincidence? I think not!

I have hsd the anthrax shot (4 of the series of 6). I also like to fly fish. Any relation? Let's explore.....


Lefty Kreh is a famous fly fishing icon. He's written many articles, tied many flies and spent way more time on the river than I have.

Here is part of an interview with Lefty in the April 2009 issue of Field and Stream. He tells Jay Cassell:

AFTER WORLD WAR II, I STARTED FLY CASTING WHEN I GOT BACK FROM EUROPE. [Lefty fought in the Battle of the Bulge in 1945.] Back then, I got a job at the Biological Warfare Center, where we grew and concentrated the bacteria that the scientists worked on. I was one of three people who got anthrax - on my hand and arm. My full name is Bernard Victor Kreh, and there is now a BVK strain of anthrax. I was doing shift work, and I'd hunt or fish between shifts. I started to get a reputation as a hotshot bass fisherman.

So is it any wonder that the two are related? I just thought that was interesting.

That is all.
