Dustin Carlson Wednesday, January 11, 2012 Get kids involved in fishing…it is a far better past time than staring at a computer screen or a gaming device. Teach them young to get out and enjoy the beautiful outdoors the same way that you do. For helpful hints, visit: Take Me […]

Rob Bridge Tuesday, December 13, 2011 It has been said that a dog is man’s best friend. Never has this adage been more true than with the relationship between an angler and his/her dog. Fishing dogs are loyal, willing partakers of the adventures we pursue as anglers. The connection is […]
woo Wednesday, November 2, 2011 I’ll emerge from my tent as the morning sun rises, The day full of promise and lush with surprises. The glow of a fire once reaching skyward, Will sizzle and steam under black coals interred. I’ll wipe haze from my eyes and shake sleep from […]
Owl Jones Tuesday, October 18, 2011 It’s 7 a.m. on a foggy Blue Ridge Morning “I’ve got him! Ohhhhhh, man…don’t go into that log….come on, baby….come on….hold tippet! Hold!” It was fourteen inches of angry brown trout in two feet of clear, cold creek. The thing wasn’t giving up without […]
John Margaroni Friday, September 23, 2011 I met my new fishing buddy, Ken , during a 3 month stay in Rexburg, Idaho. We were thrown together by some mutual friends that knew we both enjoyed fishing for trout. The story I want to tell you is why Ken was undoubtedly […]
We had anticipated this trip for weeks. Three days with my buddy Brad on the South Holston River, camping and fishing. It was late summer and the reports had told us that the large browns were feeding actively on surface patterns. The thought of hooking into a 20+ inch brown […]
Scott Slivers Friday, September 2, 2011 Sending fly rods in for repairs and hearing the stories behind them is part of working at a fly shop. After spending a decent amount of time behind the counter one almost becomes morbidly interested in how these fishing tools meet their demise. Some […]
Nick Granato Tuesday, July 26, 2011 Typically no one thinks of fishing streamers in the middle of summer. Especially not when fish are looking up for terrestrials, caddis or large stoneflies. In all honesty several of my best streamers days have been had in June through September, not late fall […]
Marc Payne Thursday, June 16, 2011 On the Clinch River in East Tennessee, west of interstate 75 as it bridges the water at breakneck speed is a mass of T.V.A. power lines that keep the City of Knoxville and points beyond supplied with electricity. The water beneath these lines is […]
Rob Bridge Wednesday, May 18, 2011 Last year, I took a friend who had never floated in a drift boat to float the A-section of the Green River. It was mid-week, which meant that there were very few Floaties on the river. I had placed my friend the pole position […]
Dustin Carlson Friday, April 29, 2011 …or, even better, spend a day on the water with. Honestly, this was a very difficult list to come up with. Not because there are few, but because there are so many accomplished anglers both past and present. One could easily list their top […]
We sat down with Scientific Angler’s Jeff Wieringa and asked him ten questions. If you don’t know Jeff, you should. You probably owe a lot of the innovations in fly fishing to his mad-scientist type mind. He is inventor of Sharkskin and the designer of the new Scientific Anglers waterproof […]
