Trico: What you didn’t even know was there is now gone…
There is something intimate and unique about being on the water at first light. Not the published news paper time when the sun crests the horizon. I’m talking about standing in a stream ready to fish when that slow descent of “civil twilight” begins to mix with the darkness of night. When rays of sun [...]

It’s 9:25 AM now. I’m driving somewhere around the little Pennsylvania town of Bellfonte. My GPS device keeps telling me to make a left down a street that is clearly marked one way – the wrong way! Despite this fact I circle around twice and still make the turn only to have to veer off [...]

Work had me going to Tucson AZ for a week, so I decided to meet up with a guy who I have been in contact with for quite some time but never met! Aaron Otto lives outside Phoenix and we have talked about and wanted to link up and make the trip to the White [...]

There is an often untold story in the fly fishing conservation world. Rightly so, we spend a great deal of time highlighting potential industrial and political hazards to our local river ecosystems, but often we become solely focused on such material. I guess “good news” just really doesn’t sell. But the neat fact remains that [...]

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 [...]

Sunday, July 19, 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 [...]

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 [...]

Saturday, June 6, 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” [...]

It is my new hypothesis that the 1hour driving bubble surrounding State College, PA is hands down Fly Fishing Heaven!
