It is with profound sadness the passing of Cathy Beck, beloved wife, and esteemed fly fishing expert. Cathy passed away last week, leaving behind a legacy of passion, dedication, and expertise in the world of fly fishing.
Throughout her journey, she became a respected figure in the fly fishing community, known for her unparalleled skills, dedication, and infectious enthusiasm for the sport.

Both Cathy and Barry hosted trips for many years on a schedule to different lodges and destinations all over the world.
Beyond her professional achievements, Cathy will be remembered for her kindness, warmth, and unwavering love for her family. Cathy’s passing leaves a profound void in the fly fishing community, but her legacy will endure through the lives she touched and the passion for fly fishing that she instilled in others.
