Every year bull trout begin their arduous journey up river towards their spawning grounds. Depending on the distance required to travel, this can begin in the early spring all the way up into the fall. Bulls can travel hundreds of miles from their wintering habitat, traversing looming waterfalls and snaking […]
There are many times in my fishing life and a few in my personal life where I have arrived a little too late to the party – started to fish for carp after far too many years of just chasing trout, started to tie flies after a 10-15 year hiatus, […]
Happy February all you fishy folk, I hope you all had an incredible 2018 and are excited for a brand new fishing season in the coming months. Recently, I was invited to visit Fishpond’s headquarters here in Denver, Colorado. I was fortunate enough to spend a couple hours talking with […]
