As the weather improves up here in the Midwest so does the fishing. My buddy Mike and I decided that we would try and head East in search of steelhead. The rivers that we were fishing had been frozen for most of the winter, however, the high temperatures and direct sun light really helped the fish get back into their […]
CHROMED Out
Euro Nymphing & Competitive Fly Fishing
This past Saturday I was lucky enough with the chance to be able to fish with Brown Hobson. He is an Orvis Endorsed guide in Asheville, North Carolina, and is also a member of the USA Fly Fishing team. He is definitely the most skilled angler I have ever met. Since I am trying to make my way onto the youth team this […]
So what happens when you move to the keys as a fishing photographer?
Your friends visit you to fish a lot more often… and its great!
Big Cypress
One of my favorite places to get away from the city, Big Cypress National Preserve. Its 729,000 acres of endless cypress swamp with many opportunities to get up close with some Everglades wildlife. Everything from alligator, snakes, birds, deer, aliens, bears, otters, and panthers etc… (still waiting to cross paths with a panther or bear). This is why its one […]
Breakfast for Lunch?
What do trout like to eat in the cold months? Other than tiny little midges.. In the stream that I fish, they like breakfast for each meal of the day. Eggs and Stoneflies (Bacon).
Plan B
Started off the day at the Fly Fishing Show in Winston-Salem, NC, and ended up on the Watauga.
Summer on the Road Part II
It’s been a while. Where did I leave off? Oh ya, I left off in late August. After spending a week in the Louisiana marsh as an instructor for Outdoor Texas Camps I had a few weeks off before I would be leaving for Florida in the middle of September.
The water can be deep and still skinny right?
So… In a land far far away, big boats with even bigger motors hanging off the back run away from the beautiful flats, shoals, creeks and mangrove lines that we here at Skinny Water Culture know and love. We do however share a few commonalities with these seemingly crazed individuals (and more often then not teams). We both will wake […]
Winter Steel
Four buddies and I traveled north to Pulaski for some true winter steelheading in typical Great Lakes conditions. The temperature was low and over the course of two days, it rarely stopped snowing. Each morning we awoke to 6-8 inches of snow that added onto the few inches received throughout the day. The temperature and wind resulted in frozen […]

Bar Tricks
It has been more than three full months since I have been able to fly a loop, with its tiny payload of steel and fur and feather, towards the scaled, torsional flesh of a gamefish. And, what is perhaps even worse, is that it has been almost as long since I’ve been afforded the time to sit down and write. […]
