Good morning! I am very proud to tease my TV series Dawn Wells: Reel Adventures coming to Amazon Prime in just days. I traveled with world-renowned fly-fisher Kathy Ruddick around the globe fishing and exploring the world of fishing in the countries we visited. Part fishing show, part travelogue and part “buddy” series, it is a unique look at the world of fly fishing through the eyes of two women. It was a wonderful time in my life shooting this series. My dad and I enjoyed fly fishing. He wasn’t around to see this production in the late 90s but I thought of him with each adventure.
