Salmonfly Report
Winter was an utter disaster, the Utah’s stream access fight was a long and brutal one. In the end, the anglers lost and private interests succeed… and I blew my top. I felt to continue to freely fish water other than the middle Provo river, I needed to move.  SO, I packed my [...]


V is for Vendetta

V is for Vendetta

Its been a long grueling 45 days fighting for river rights at Capitol hill. In the end, the anglers will mostly likely lose, the Bill will not be vetoed by the Gov and Utah will be locking up rivers.  So much was going on during this time it was a task trying to keep up, [...]

Fiberglass rod and Small Streams

Fiberglass rod and Small Streams

Nick and I hit a small local stream. We took some time to slow down a bit after the last few months of a ‘go, go, go’ mentality. We both looked forward to casting tiny rods to hungry fish.
It was a balmy mid 70’s with partly cloudy skies and a slight chance of a [...]


Cutthroat and Me

Cutthroat and Me

I’ve always enjoyed searching for Cutthroat Trout. Even when I was a small water rat these guys were my favorite. I suppose its the eagerness of the fish to take your fly at that age where the entertainment factor is a top priority. As I grew older I feel in love with the colors, the [...]
