This has been an extraordinary season for steelhead on the Babine River in British Columbia. I was fortunate to spend Week 3 of the eight-week season at the Babine Steelhead Lodge (babinesteelheadlodge.com) and share in that experience. The Babine River, about 60 miles long, drains Babine Lake and is a […]
As you may have seen, I was lucky enough to be able to travel to South America this past August (August 2017) to fish the Iriri River in Brazil with my best friend. This trip to the jungle was hosted by Untamed Angling. Kendjam is now my favorite trip I’ve […]

There, I said it, I underestimated bonefish completely. I underestimated their power, their spookiness, and how vast their habitat can be. I underestimated the entire experience, and I admit it. Now that that is out of the way, I will get to the important stuff; the bonefishing experience at Andros […]
Part 1 of 2: A look at what goes through the mind of an offshore newbie during the dog days of August… I have pulled on a few tarpon and bonefish but I am a complete neophyte to the realm of fly fishing for sailfish. So please don’t take this […]
With each passing day I continue to be amazed with the destinations that I get to visit with a fly rod! I recently had a chance to take part in the Fishwest hosted trip to the Tarpon Cay Lodge which is operated by Yucatan Fly Fishing adventures. As a beginner […]
