The best piece of gear you own…
The 4 main systems surrounding State College, PA still continue to surprise and intrigue this angler. You really can find any potential trout angling puzzle in that small little driving bubble. From the slow flowing waters of Spring Creek to the big water of Penns, from the falling turns of Big Fishing Creek to the [...]

19. July 2009
Recently I was sitting on the banks of the Little Juniata River in Pennsylvania. Quietly sipping some water in the shade of a willow tree when an older gentleman came slowly down river swinging wet flies. Before he entered my stretch he gave the universal open hand query to fish through of which I replied [...]

10. July 2009
With the mindset of solely practicing Down River Wet Fly fishing I stripped every Dry Fly, Nymph, and Streamer out of my Vest and hit the road for a local Spring Creek. Big bountiful blue skies definitely lift the spirit. Until Blam! &^%$! Do I still remember how to change a tire? 15 Minutes and [...]

15. June 2009
I think I’ve created a monster. My son will be turning 4 in one week and he’s all ready fishing obsessed. All he talks about is fishing. He spends hours in the backyard casting and that’s after I untangle his line from the chandelier and kick him outside. Everything is fishing. He wants to watch [...]

12. June 2009
A relatively wise fisherman once told me when prospecting an area for trout: “walk into the local Fly Shop. Look at all their flies… and then don’t use a dam one of em!” You see, “fly shop guys” are a lot like sneaker designers. Year after year, they keep coming up with brand new, cutting [...]

6. June 2009
I recently wrapped up the first leg of my mission to prospect the streams surrounding State College Pennsylvania which will possibly hold venues for this year’s National Fly Fishing Championship for Team USA. The first trip was an exciting mix of “easy as pie” Euro Style Nymphing on the Little Juniata and tough “head scratching” [...]

3. June 2009
Another great Steelhead season is all but in the books for our region. With a nice little bookend we hit the olde “Catt” just one more time and I landed what will most certainly be my last Steel of 09′. Fitting she came near twilight. I wonder what 2010 will hold for us?

29. May 2009
Last time it was Spring Creek and the Little Juniata… this time it’s Big Fishing Creek and Penns. Leaving sharp 5am Saturday morning. Booked a site in Poe Paddy Sunday night right on the river. Reports are many places will be a zoo, but it will be great practice on some heavily pressured water and [...]

24. May 2009
It is my new hypothesis that the 1hour driving bubble surrounding State College, PA is hands down Fly Fishing Heaven! After one trip down there I’m thinking about packing up my little family, finding a nice little flat on Main St., and settling down to a long fruitful life of rising fish and gangbuster hatches. [...]
