I’m sad to report longtime CFF member Bill Johnson passed away last week.

Bill loved being out on the water and was a long time, avid fly fisherman.

He valued conservation. The continued care of clean waters was important to him.

Bill enjoyed sharing and helping others with fly tying and fishing.

From his friend Nancy Dyke: often when I’m fishing I think of bits of wisdom from Bill “you wont catch fish if your fly isn’t in the water!”

He will be missed!

His obituary should be in the upcoming Sunday Oregonian.
