About
the Author
Raised and educated in southern California, Scott Sadil spent
two decades chasing tales of surf worldwide, a pursuit which helped
initiate him into the uncertainties and unexpected rewards of
the writing life. Waiting for swells along beaches of the eastern
Pacific, he began casting flies afoot, an adventure retold in
his first book, the memoir Angling Baja: One man’s fly
fishing journey through the surf. His second book, the novel
Cast from the Edge: Tales of an Uncommon Fly Fisher,
follows the exploits, failings, and redemption of one Francis
Sepic, a narrator whose story shares more similarities with the
author’s own life than he cares to admit. For the past decade,
Sadil has published stories and essays in all of the significant
fly fishing magazines, including Fly Rod & Reel, Gray’s
Sporting Journal, The Drake, The Flyfish Journal,
American Angler, California Fly Fisher and others. A
former Fishtrap Fellow, he now lives with his two sons in Hood
River, Oregon, where he also teaches at the public high school
and instructs beginning fly fishers through Portland Parks and
Recreation.
Scott Sadil’s latest book, Fly Tales: Lessons in Fly
Fishing Like the Real Guys, was published by Barclay Creek
Press in August, 2010. A collection of his fiction, Lost in
Wyoming, was published in July, 2009, also by Barclay Creek
Press. Lost in Wyoming was also selected as a finalist
for the 2011 Ken Kesey Oregon Book Award in Fiction.
