Utah Trip 2011

Okay, the west is cool too. The above video is from a little fishing I did out in Utah around the Altamont area. We stayed at Falcon’s Ledge Resort . There were twelve of us and we all split up and fished different rivers around the area. Which ran the gamut from freestone . . . → Read More: Utah Trip 2011

Who needs to go out west when you have the South Holston

Really, I get the same comments all of the time. Those comments are; “Where do you fly fish around here?”, “I can’t wait to go out west.” and “It’s just different out west”. Most of the time these folks have never fished the South Holston or Watauga tailwaters, or if they have, they have . . . → Read More: Who needs to go out west when you have the South Holston

A little Fin Porn to ease your soul.

I’ve been super busy between work, inventory, school, test, papers and oh yeah flying to Utah to fish the Green River, that I’ve not been able to throw up the post of fishing the Soho with Clay on 350 cfs (it was epic and I caught a Lake Trout on big springs road).  Yeah, . . . → Read More: A little Fin Porn to ease your soul.

The Clinch gives up another surprise!

Made it out to fish with a friend that happened to be passing through town.  I had a mid-term to study for, so I could only fish half of the day .  We decided on the Clinch as it is only about 20 minutes from the house.  Plus, it has been giving up some . . . → Read More: The Clinch gives up another surprise!

The Tennessee Tour

Let me first say how fortunate I am to live in an area that has such great and diverse fishing opportunities. East Tennessee has everything that a fisherman could ever want. From small mountain streams to tailwaters that fish like rivers in Montana and plenty of lakes in between.

Every year one of my . . . → Read More: The Tennessee Tour

A Little House Cleaning

I was going through a few items and wanted to try and clean out a few things. 

The first is a pair of Smith Polarized sunglasses.  The frame style is the Riverside and the lens is the polarchromic Amber with tortise frame.  These are in thier techlite lenses.  I ordered these and discovered that . . . → Read More: A Little House Cleaning

Clinch River Heats Up

The generation on the Clinch has not been the best this year due to very high water.  In addition to work, I have also been working on my MBA through Tennessee Tech, which has limited the amount of fishing that I’ve been able to do.  So this last weekend was a great treat.  I had worked all . . . → Read More: Clinch River Heats Up

Size doesn’t matter with a skunk on your back

Okay…go ahead and admit it.  You’ve been guilty of wishing for a small fish.  Sure, we all hop in the water with visions of one of those grip and grin laviathans that will make us the envy of all our angling buddies.  We picture the perfect hookset, the admirable fight, the headfirst guide into . . . → Read More: Size doesn’t matter with a skunk on your back

Troutfest and Fly Fishing Legends

Troutfest 2011 is complete.  I’m not sure on the total money raised, but I’m sure it is as good as always.  For those of you that are not familiar with Troutfest, check it out at Troutfest.org .  In my opinion it is one of the coolest fly fishing festivals in the United States.  Where else can you sit . . . → Read More: Troutfest and Fly Fishing Legends

Holston River and Caddis Hatching

It has been hard to get on the water this year.  The addition of grad school to work has taken up much of my free time.  I have finished my first semester and it feels great.  So, I was really happy to get on the water and do some fishing with some good friends.  Because, . . . → Read More: Holston River and Caddis Hatching
