Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

Bayfield-WisconsinGranny said I was full of it when I called December 9 in Florida my last day of fishing for 2024.  She was right.  Yesterday Howie and I took our ladies to Bayfield, WI for lunch at Morty’s Pub then we fished the town dock on Lake Superior for a short time.

Be sure to keep track of my upcoming travels at the 2025 fly fishing shows and fishing around the world!

I started fly fishing at age 7 in the lakes and ponds of New England cutting my teeth on various sunfish, bass, crappie and stocked trout. I went to Northland College in Ashland, Wisconsin, where I graduated with a Naturalist Degree while I discovered new fishing opportunities for pike, muskellunge, walleyes and various salmonids found in Lake Superior and its tributaries.

From there I headed west to work a few years in the Yellowstone region to simply work as much as most people fish and fish as much as most people work. I did just that, only it lasted over 20 years working at the Jack Dennis Fly Shop in Jackson, WY where I departed in 2009. Now it’s time to work for "The Man", working for myself that is.

I pursue my love to paint fish, lecture on every aspect of fly fishing you can imagine and host a few trips to some of the most exotic places you can think of. My ultimate goal is to catch as many species of fish on fly possible from freshwater to saltwater, throughout the world. I presently have taken over 440 species from over 60 countries!
