Changing Planes by Kathy Scott

Introduction

Changing Planes is Kathy Scott’s latest work, preceded by Headwaters Fall as Snow and Moose in the Water, Bamboo on the Bench. In this, the third of her journals, she intertwines the making of her own bamboo fly rod with sharing how her life has been altered by involvement in the split cane community and environmental issues. Anglers and Advocates are brought together by a timeless appreciation for craftmanship; in Changing Planes, she weaves her theme as deftly as she furls a silk leader. Kathy Scott, like a 21st century, Lady Leopold, walks a different trail, blending nature with science, craftmanship with caring.
