A big fly rod...but it is a fly rod. My 15wt is a arm killer from Loomis, but the 14 is very castable Winston and I love it. My 13 is a Sage Salt and I'm not too fond of it. No character, but it fights fish well. When you grab the 10 or 12 they feel like trout rods after playing with the big...

I've fished with Conway the last 4-5 years at different times of the year. We've become good friends and have a special project we'll be working on.... coming to a theater near you! Hint: we tested a Tenkara rod out on Mackerel, now it's time to go big or go home... The best line I've found to...

Just returned from my annual Mako Shark fishing adventure in San Diego. Slow fishing, but still managed to interact with a few fish over the course of three days. While not super technical fly fishing, it is very visual. Sight casting to Makos on the surface isn't for everyone, but it is kind of...

Just rolled into the driveway after a 260o mile Yellowstone/Grand Teton road trip. I have 1400+ images to edit, but here are a few I knocked out this morning.... I hope you enjoy them and would love feedback. This proves elk can't read....

Took a side road on the way home yesterday....

Just back from a fly fishing trip to the southern Yucatán and a small village called Punta Allen.... no, I didn't drive. I did walk the dirt road into the village and captured these images...

Thanks. Photography should be about telling a story without words. In this world of Instagram I love adding some Tongue-in-cheek captions, but the images could stand alone and allow the viewer to write their own story. Here's a few photos from the weekend...

I made a dash down to the Washington coast this weekend for a crab sandwich. Took a drive on the beach to look for eagles and got a couple photographs worth sharing...

These are from Mexico...a small fishing village called San Felipe in the Yucatán.

Here's a few from Wallace, Idaho... a "must stop" when heading east from my neck of the woods...

As a first timer, and not knowing the best route, it was a bit worrisome to travel quite a ways out of Susanville with much of that on gravel roads and find this.... just kept going anyway. Wasn't any worse than the Deschutes canyon road in the fall....

One of my favorite things to photograph when I travel are those found objects, worn walls, creaking doors and forgotten memories that draw my eye. As a professional in the film era I would wander around in the early morning hours with a few rolls of Kodachrome and my trusty Canon F1n. Now with...

After spending three days at Pyramid Lake last week, I headed north with some industry friends to the Owyhee River in Eastern Oregon. BWOs were popping and big Browns were rising. I had a dozen fish from 18" to 24" on Friday before the weekend crowd moved in... 1500 miles 7-day road trip...

Awesome! Hooked up with Scott Hoffman ( @NV.Recon ) from Reno and we had a great time. Scott got his largest fish to date, a 15lber! I parked my rig on the beach and never moved it for three days. Never leave fish to find fish. Camping was perfect with the winds calm in the morning and evening...

Good to know you like the Jackson Journey. I just sold one of my Boston Whalers and ordered two boats from Jackson, the Journey for touring and the Coosa FD for fishing. I'll be using a trailer to transport them. I went with the Coosa FD over the Hobi angler based on weight and some of the other...

Finally finished the kitchen remodel and took it for a 7 day, 1500 mile test drive. First change was to the refrigerator where I switched to a Tembo Tusk slide. I had a bracket fabricated to hold a Frontrunner fold down table. This is great for quick lunches or heating up water with the JetBoil...

OK all you Nevada fly fishers... I'm busting out of the shop on March 11th and heading to Pyramid Lake to fish the 12-14th. Need some boots on the ground intel for areas to check out and places to make camp. Any other details would be awesome. This has been on the list for some time and I'm...

Changed my username to reflect my mission to explore the Great Northwest. Travel safe, friends!

Pretty fast. Since I travel solo I cook then eat. When finished dining I'll wipe it off, loosen any stuck on food with rock salt and give it a rinse if needed. Normally by the time I've cleaned it up and oiled it I can pack it away. Full disclaimer... I also carry a set of cast iron cookware...

Project weekend here at the lodge. Got the fold-down table mounted on the refrigerator slide and made up some bushings to mount the Overland Equipped ladder steps to the Gobi Ladder. Added two steps to the driver side to mount my shovel. Got it all done, but ran out of daylight... I had a...
