Father’s Day is just around the corner. We are here to help with just the right amount of inspiration for the fly fishing dad in your life. Check out some of our favorites below.

Sage ESN Fly Rod

Who doesn’t like catching more fish? The technique of Euro Nymphing, when properly executed, will produce more fish hands down. The ESN was designed specifically for European Style Nymphing. The refined medium action has been designed with a variety of long and short line techniques and situations in mind, allowing you to confidently work any stretch of river.

Sage ESN Fly Reel

The ESN series fly reel was designed with the needs of the Euro Nymph Angler in mind. The reel includes a unique balance system allows anglers to assemble and fine-tune a set of weights to match any Euro Nymphing or standard fly rod. Couple that with a thin, large arbor, design and you will be able to land fish quickly and efficiently.

I grew up in the shadow of some of the most heralded ski slopes in the western United States. Instead of skiing or snowboarding I took up fly fishing at a young age. Through high school & my early college years I was fortunate enough to represent my country playing Sled Hockey. I started at Fishwest as a member of the web team and now I oversee and manage almost every aspect of the Fishwest e-commerce platform. I also act as the main point of contact for all of the Fishwest hosted travel trips.
