The Great Smoky Mountains National Park
I had the pleasure of doing some Fall camping in the Smoky Mountains this past weekend, 4 days 3 nights at Elkmont Campground. The Little River runs through the campground and is teaming with wild rainbow, brown, and, in the upper reaches, brook trout. I was looking forward to spending a good amount of time [...]

The Gunpowder Falls River, Maryland
I was in Maryland for a conference this past week, right by the Gunpowder Falls River in the Hereford area. This river is well known as a wild trout stream and tailwater that runs out of Prettyboy Reservoir. It was named one of the 100 best trout streams in the country by Trout Unlimited and [...]
2021 Cheeky Schoolie Tournament
In the era of Covid 19, safely hosting grass roots tournaments with hundreds of participants is a tall order, especially if it’s the world’s largest fly fishing only tournament.

East Branch of the Croton River

2018 Mongaup Pond Summer Camping Trip
Another summer camping trip is in the books, and this was a wet one. With rain predicted for 4 of 7 days, we were prepared for the worst. The weather ended up not being too terrible, with only light showers the majority of the time. We did have torrential downpours one day, but we were [...]
2018 Cheeky Schoolie Tournament
I have to hand it to Cheeky Fishing. They threw together a great weekend. I had a number of spin anglers on the water say to me that weekend "What's going on? I've never seen so many people fly fishing here before." The answer was the Cheeky Schoolie Tournament, the world's largest fly fishing [...]
Winter Fly Fishing
People often ask why I would stand in 32 degree water, braving below freezing air temperatures to go fishing. To catch fish of course! Just because it's cold out, it doesn’t mean you can’t go fishing. You just have to be a little more prepared. Much like the rest of the year, you need to [...]
