Tying Heritage Featherwing Streamers

Sharon E. Wright lives in Lisbon, Maine, between the Sabattus and Androscoggin Rivers. Her inherited interest in Maine tradition and history is evident in her original fly designs which have become her signature in the fly-tying community. Her great-great-great-grandfather was Joshua Gross Rich, one of Mainea s earliest and most prominent outdoor sporting pioneers of the famed Rangeley Lakes region. Sharon loves to share her passion for tying classic patterns and their histories, which has evolved into presentations, shows, and classes throughout the country. Her work reflects her heritage, the region, and her family history and has appeared in nationaland international publications."
