Bob Lindquist

A self – confessed fly fishing fool, Bob Lindquist lives in Callicoon, NY, where he guides on his beloved Delaware River.  Before retirement, he waded the waters of Long Island casting feathered frauds for over forty years.  His favorite targets were false albacore, striped bass, weakfish and the wild brook trout of a local spring creek, the Carmans River.  Bob has fished the Catskills, particularly the Delaware River System, since 1983.  His passion for this magnificent river system inspired Bob to build his retirement home on the banks of the Main Stem of the Delaware River.  As a guide, Bob uses the skills learned fishing Delaware River system to catch the demanding rainbows, browns and warmwater fish in this legendary fishery.  In addition, Bob has a blossoming passion for both Atlantic Salmon and Steelhead.  Bob has worked with numerous fly fishing industry companies including Whiting Farms, Solarez, and Ahrex as well as a world class Atlantic salmon lodge in Labrador, Big River Camps.

Trained in mathematics, physics, philosophy and education, Bob takes an analytic approach to fly fishing.  His work has lead to articles that have appeared in or are set to appear in Fly Tyer, Salt Water Fly Fishing, Fly Fisherman, American Fly Fishing, Gray’s Sporting Journal, On The Fly, and Japanese Fly Fisherman magazines.  He is a recognized fly tyer who has appeared at many shows including those held in Edison, Lancaster, Marlborough, Virginia, Connecticut, Texas and Long Island.  Recently, Bob has added a passion for photography to his fly fishing and tying addictions, having his work appear in photoessays in magazines and a gallery.  As a retired teacher and coach, Bob uses his public speaking skills to give presentations throughout the Mid Atlantic and North East regions.
