Good News!

As previously reported, Ian Colin James suffered a serious heart attack last week.  As a result, he had to undergo a triple by-pass operation.  I have not had a  chance to speak with him, but reports are that he is doing great and moving around veins and arteries after six hours of surgery did not affect Ian’s sense of humour.

He apparently told someone that during the operation, he saw Jesus – and Jesus was not using a bobber.

From what I understand, there were no reports of seeing any saints or Popes.

Anyhow, good news for those of us that know Ian James and his wonderful contributions to fly fishing here in Ontario.

I’ll update as future news comes available on Ian’s condition.  In the meantime, sheesh, I need to get out and do some fly fishing!
