Stoneflies and Turtleheads: A Maine Flyfisher’s Misadventures

It’s funny how www.maineflyfish.com has introduced me to new people. I never know when I will run into someone who knows about the site. I will be in different states fishing and get talking to someone and ask them if they know about the site and more than half the time they say they are […]

Fishing in Maine has Been Great!

I know this has been a crazy weather season but fishing in Maine has been great. I started guiding in May for northern pike and rolled into bass and trout a week later. It all has been great fishing but with tough weather conditions, rain and 20 mph winds, has made it tough for my […]

Adventures in Florida with the McKay Brothers: Afternoon of Day three

As the morning warmed up to 80 degrees, we sat in the local diner eating breakfast. You could feel the energy in our conversation as we talked about the morning and we went over that huge snook that Tait set the hook way too soon on, but our conversation soon changed to the pancakes due […]

Adventures in Florida with the McKay brothers: Day Two

On the second day, we had decided we were going to get up early and rent kayaks (which I won’t lie, I am not a real big fan of, but that was our cheapest option) to get us out on the water. First light wasn’t until around 630, so we got to sleep in a […]

Late Fall Adventures

I spent a week drifting one of Maine’s extended open water rivers to see if it was worth offering trips in late fall and the result was awesome. We averaged 20 fish a day, any where from 12 to 20 inch fish. I won’t lie, the weather was tough. It went from 45 degrees to […]

A Couple Book reviews

Fly Fishing Belize by Jim Klug is not just a book on fly fishing Belize but a bible about it. This will soon find a home on your coffee table because you will want to display this for everyone to see. It is a work of art. The photos come to life on the pages […]

A Guides Day Off

As you know I am owner of www.maineflyfish.com and head guide at www.mainefishingadventures.com. But I also work 50 hours a week at UPS, so I have very limited time off. You would think on my day off from it all, I would get caught up on chores or just relax and do nothing. Well, that […]

Women in Fly Fishing

Over the last few years I have seen a trend in the industry that suggests this is not only just a man’s sport, but more and more women love to fly fish. There are many companies who are creating lines just for women, which I think is great. I know women who are just as […]
