Why do I Flyfish? Flyfishing has become a part of my nature and it is constantly on my mind, whether I am studying Google Earth for new bodies of water or thinking about a new fly pattern idea that I need to tie that night. There are so many opportunities in the world of Fly-Fishing and it can take you anywhere in the world and even pay your bills. I have met some of my best friends through Fly-Fishing and have unforgettable memories on some of my crazy excursions to fishing destinations.
If I could be fishing right now anywhere in the world, I would be…. Summers in the North Country hunting Pike and a winters in the Louisiana Marsh chasing Big Reds!
When you’re not fishing, what are you doing? When I am not fishing I am working on my vintage Motorcycles, going to shows, hanging out with my girlfriend and my Black Lab.
