Bruce Chard’s Ultimate Bonefish School will be held Nov. 14-21, 2009 at Andros South Bonefish Lodge. This school will be headed by legendary Florida Keys guide Capt. Bruce Chard. In my opinion, it’s the most comprehensive and technical bonefish school in the industry, suitable from beginners to advanced fly fishermen. There’s only two spots left [...]

With all the posts around the blog world about the perfect fly fishing beer, I felt compelled to give you my favorite. I know it’s cool to have a fish logo on the bottle or packaging but does that really give it justice to be THE BEER to drink? I personally prefer to recommend a [...]

I tied this pattern up on the road when I was out fishing the Trico hatch on the South Platte River in Colorado. The idea came to mind when I saw clumps of a dozen or more Trico’s floating down the river together. I haven’t seen any patterns like this yet in the industry and [...]

We’re asking everyone to take a few minutes out of their day and email our state representatives to stop the closing of the Lake Burton Fish Hatchery.
