Those spots...oooooweee! Those colors...daaaaaang! Those....shoulders? Ahhhh yeah. No matter what type of fly fishing you do, it's hard to deny that brook trout are just plain ugly. Before I ever even had...

Over the last year or two, my buddy, Shane, had talked to me many times about wanting to come shoot some fly fishing with me. Shane doesn't fly fish but he spends a lot of time outside doing outside stuff and,...

It was a beautiful morning. The sky was so clear and so blue. The temperatures felt good and you could just tell that it was going to be a great day. We walked to the river's edge and it looked...

Recently, I realized that my little brother and I don't see each other as often as we should. I'm a busy dad of three and he's a hard-working fireman who's prepping for med school. After coming to this...

Are you ever out on the water all freaking day long? Hopefully you are! Even if you're not you've probably fished during the day and lingered around until it starts to get dark. In years past I often found...

Perched atop my lookout, I'd seen this fish cruise in and out of this backwater. A healthy rainbow wandering slowly and occasionally swallowing suspended morsels or going tail up for one off the bottom. It's...

"What are the chances?" said Nate. "Who knows?" I responded, "but it was the baddest brown I have ever seen!" Rewind several hours and once again that cursed alarm is buzzing uncontrollably.  A long drive...

Hundreds of miles of driving, miles and miles of hiking, camping in the woods with unpredictable fall weather in the forecast, all in order to chase char? What can you say when you are invited to go on a week...

Blitz trip. Again. I think this was the gnarliest one we've taken this year so far, but you gotta pay your dues right? Sometimes it pays off and sometimes it doesn't. We had a little of both but without a...

We've been on a hawg hunting kick lately and have been putting in time exploring unfamiliar waters. We arrived a little later than we had planned so I eagerly decided to run over to the water to have quick...

I look forward to spring every year. I find myself jonesin' for a fix more on those first pleasant, warm days of early spring than almost any other time. Maybe it's partially the thought of days on the water...

Sipping my orange juice at the Estancia Laguna Verde Lodge, I felt half disheartened and half elated. It was our last day at and Jurassic Lake.  As we saddled the quads and rode down the rim toward the lake...

Wind, wind and more wind, at least that's what I had come expecting but Jurassic Lake had yet to reveal her true nature to us.  The guide told us we were having about the best weather possible and we soaked...

Remote, way out there, untouched, in the middle-of-nowhere: Jurassic Lake Argentina. It seems long dirt roads to get to prime fishing locations were my forte while traveling Argentina. Each and every dirt road...

If Nate and I had been lacing up baseball cleats instead of wading boots we would have struck out. I'm not gonna lie, if I knew we'd end up spending our day fishing for carp on the fly I probably would have...

5 hours of driving, 3 hours of sleep, and 12 hours of non-stop fishing. Sound familiar? Yep. Sounds like the makings of a perfect fishing trip if you ask me! Ha. We were stoked. The mission? Three noobs...

My wife loves camping at established campgrounds and....I'm not really a big fan. Our destination was on this outing was a compromise in the Manti La Sal mountains, but on this trip I learned - yet again -...

Zev has already been fishing with me a number of times but for me today was a monumental day. I've been away from the water for a few months now and in that time Zev has continued to grow into the little...

Back at it again!  I met up with a few friends and headed out to a lake known for big brook trout.  Let's just state char might be the most amazing fish ever... just saying.  There is just something about...

The ice would be coming soon and we visited our favorite local stillwater for some tiger trout fishing.  I really enjoy fishing for these fish.  At this lake it's especially fun to tease them as they cruise...
