10 Waters to Watch
In Memory of Jim Range
On January 20, 2009, the American Fly Fishing Trade Association and the conservation community as a whole lost a dear friend and advocate. Jim Range died at the age of 63 after a brief battle with cancer . Jim envisioned and was instrumental in the development of AFFTA's National Casting Call. We proudly honor him by renaming our event the Jim Range National Casting Call.
Jim was interviewed by Fox 5 DC's Holly Morris before the 2008 National Casting Call. Click here to see his interview.
