We are still working on a Memorial for Pete.
Tentatively, we are hoping for September. We are looking at locations in the next few weeks, and should have a solid plan by mid July, hopefully.
Sorry this has taken so long. He was larger than life, and making a memorial to do him justice has been tricky!
Hang in there with us, as we should know more, soon.
The life and times of Master Fly Tyer Pete Parker will be, for the most part, shared on this space. Also, other major accomplishments and news in the Fly Fishing world, our "small pond" as Pete put it, will be shared here. Feel free to post photos, memories, video's, fish stories, and whatever else tickles your fancy!

Hall of Fame?
Pete was, without a doubt, one of the most influential people in the fly fishing world. Though he never believed it himself, he touched and changed many aspects of the fly fishing community.
I am biased, in that I think he deserves every honor out there, but I honestly believe he should be a candidate for the IGFA Hall of Fame, and the Federation of Fly Fishers Award.
Do you agree? Then help Pete get the honors he deserves! Please check out these two websites, and maybe we can get Pete honored in the community.
