maybe and Irish at that, thought it would be a Scot lady eeh Willie Gunn, or maybe even a North American Canuck or Yank lady.
Glenda Powell
Looks like a fine salmon guide and casting instructor also. For a second I thought she may be using worms on the spey rod for salmon but I think not as the water there has both spin and fly sections. God forbid worming on a spey rod heck Willie we don't even do that over here.

Don't know about that, all-be-it I know 'about her.' Actually the best 'lady caster' I've run into is a young lady who works for Sage out of their main office on Bainbridge Island, Washington.
Think her first name is 'Kattie;' but wouldn't make a bet on that. One of the most lovely and charming young women I've ever met. Not the least taken a-back by male fishermen in large numbers.
Excellent caster with a 2-hander. She can hold her own with all but the very best.

I know more then 10 gals that are very adept with two handers. I don't know why their ability would have anything to do with their nationality. I'm sure there are competent female spey casters from every country where they fish that way. One little gal that is pretty good at a young age is Olga Koran, one of nicest teens I've had the pleasure to know. Pretty soon "ole Bill" will be having to beat off those young spey bums with the butt section of a 15ftr.

Seen nary a one lady spey caster yet in GLs waters hear say there are a couple though. Not even many single handed lady fly casters either but occassionally you will see them.
Surely no one close to Lady Glenda Powell.

Back East, you see quite a few single handed fisherladies on the trout streams. Some very cute ones, too!
But I don't see any while fishing for chrome. Maybe the lousy weather has something to do with it??

Saw one young lady on the PM once and she had a big Boxer dog running free with her.
Have seen some other memorable ones during salmon season with their husbands on the water some I care not to remember further. 
Seen some go by in DBs with Guides but really none alone by themselves other than The Boxer Lady above.

They weren't fishing, but the two best 'ladies on the river' were camping across from where three or four of us were 'wetting a line.' Popped out of their tent in mini-bikini's, walked down to the river and proceeded to carefully 'wash' themselves.
First time I'd ever seen 'soft-porn' in person.
