I hope you were able to read this week’s post, Fly Fishing the Iceland Highlands. We spent several days touring the island before our fishing experience started. Below, I share some images from Iceland. Iceland has been on our list to visit and an opportunity presented itself at the end of 2023. If you have…
You might have noticed a lack of posts the last few weeks. We’ve been in Iceland on a photography tour and decided to add 2 days at the end of our trip to try fly fishing the Iceland highlands. I’ll share our short fly fishing experience, fishing for Arctic Char. I booked this fly fishing…
It won’t be long now before Green Drake mayflies are hatching on my favorite river. I pulled out my Green Drake fly box and noticed it needed a little help. In today’s post, I’m cleaning out a fly box and getting ready for the upcoming hatch. I’ll share the process I use to refresh, sort,…
I’m still at the vise and finished another fly order this week. I’m almost caught up with my fly orders, which is a good thing because we’re leaving on another trip in two weeks. More on that later. This was a small order consisting of Art Flick’s Red Quill pictured above and the Delaware Adams….
I’ve been at the vise lately, completing a fly order for a good customer. I thought you might enjoy some fishy looking flies! I took materials with me to the Big Island of Hawaii and tied all the Sparkle Duns, a total of 60. Since I’ve been home, I finished the order and thought I’d…

We’ve been back from fly fishing in Chile for several weeks, but I wanted to share some final images from Chile. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. I love finding these prominent blue spots on Brown trout! Here is a view of Torres del Paine National Park from our hotel room…
I returned to the river for the first time since returning from Patagonia. Yes, it’s been a while! It felt strange to be on the river. How long has it been since you’ve been on the water? If it’s been a while, are you ready to fish? I thought I was. I took a few…
In this week’s post, I thought I’d share some final images from Argentina. We spent a week fly fishing in Argentina at Chochoy Mallin lodge with SET Fly Fishing. A week later, we found ourselves in southern Chile fly fishing with Rumbo Patagon. Between these fly fishing weeks, we travelled by boat and bus through…
I’ve been tying flies at the vise recently, filling orders for my patient customers. Between my trips and periodic surge of orders, my list of flies to tie grew. If you are looking for flies, be sure to contact me in the near future and I can add you to the list. I’ve stopped providing…
