    I read the article as well. I drive out of my way to patronize your shop because I've always been treated so well there. As a business owner myself, I'm very impressed you've been able to create a business that so consistently reflects your values. Well done!

    If it wasn't for Bill Kiene I would have never learned so much about such a wonderful hobby and my overall obsession. Working for Kiene's has taught me more than I could ever put into words. Bill is a very kind guy who genuinely wants to help people enjoy fly fishing as much as he does. I'm also excited that Mr. Hanley, an industry notable and nice guy, was the man to write the article about Bill. I can't wait to read the article.

    Adam I appreciate your support but.................I didn't write the article. I read the article. It was done by our Confluences columnist Bud Bynack. Sorry for any confusion.

    Cheers, Ken

    Bill even made the cover! He looks a little young to be retiring though. Buisiness must be good.
