The sport’s journal Fly Fisherman said that it was a story Carter contributed to the magazine in 1982 about fishing Pennsylvania’s Spruce Creek that revived interest in the sport. His story was about how then-Fly Fisherman editor John Randolph brought all the great anglers of the time to Camp David in 1980 to give Carter some tips for his fishing on Spruce.
GLENN YOUNGKIN HINTS AT FUTURE PRESIDENTIAL RUN: 'IF WE CAN DO IT IN VIRGINIA, WE CAN DO IT ANYWHERE'Carter wrote of the teach-in two years later for the magazine. “Fly-fishing became the ‘in’ thing for an entirely new generation of men and women,” said Randolph. I also recall that in one of his first post-presidency books, Carter revealed that after his pool of reporters dropped him off at Camp David on weekends, he'd then fly to Spruce Creek and fish with a friend, and the media never knew.
