John Goddard was one of fly-fishing?s towering figures and the pre-eminent angling entomologist of his day, and over the years he developed more than fifty original fly patterns; the most famous being the G&H Sedge (or Goddard Caddis), developed with his friend Cliff Henry. He travelled worldwide, from New Zealand to Norway, from South Africa and Kenya, and played a key role in promoting the fishing of many exotic locations. Lefty Kreh said that Goddard was the best trout fisherman that he had ever spent time with. As a columnist for The Times and The Sunday Times, Clarke has fished and travelled widely. He has caught salmon in Russia, sea trout in Tierra del Fuego, rainbow trout in Alaska, marlin in the Indian Ocean, tigerfish in southern Africa and bonefish in the central Pacific. He has written extensively on other forms of wildlife and the remote wilderness. Clarke was the first President of The Wild Trout Trust (2003?2008). He was elected an Honorary Life Member of The Flyfishers' Club in 2005. Lefty's Little Library of Fly Fishing was issued by Odysseus Editions, Birmingham, Alabama, between 1991 and 1998. It comprised 25 volumes by Lefty Kreh and other angling authors on a variety of fishing related subjects.
