Why do I Flyfish?: Because I am too lazy to ski or mountain bike, and too Type-A for golf.

If I could be fishing right now anywhere in the world, I would be…. During the month of May, Florida Bay; for the other eleven months of the year, South Andros Island.

When you’re not fishing, what are you doing?: Wreaking havoc, being mischievous, irritating others, acting crudely, and spoiling the fun.
