Half Way There

by | Oct 30, 2010 | Uncategorized

One 9 hour flight done. One more to go. We made it to Amsterdam and in two hours we will fly to Kilimanjaro – another 8 hours. We chill there for an hour then fly to Dar Es Salam. It will be another long day and we don’t get in to Dar until 11 pm Dar time. At least we can crash out a few hours. Then in the morning if all our travel goes well we are taking a ferry out to Zanzibar. Our fishing for tigers will start Tue.

The second picture is me rewarding Jim with a drink from the classic self service airport bar in Amsterdam. I’ll stick to Heineken. Good stuff!

I started fly fishing at age 7 in the lakes and ponds of New England cutting my teeth on various sunfish, bass, crappie and stocked trout. I went to Northland College in Ashland, Wisconsin, where I graduated with a Naturalist Degree while I discovered new fishing opportunities for pike, muskellunge, walleyes and various salmonids found in Lake Superior and its tributaries.

From there I headed west to work a few years in the Yellowstone region to simply work as much as most people fish and fish as much as most people work. I did just that, only it lasted over 20 years working at the Jack Dennis Fly Shop in Jackson, WY where I departed in 2009. Now it’s time to work for "The Man", working for myself that is.

I pursue my love to paint fish, lecture on every aspect of fly fishing you can imagine and host a few trips to some of the most exotic places you can think of. My ultimate goal is to catch as many species of fish on fly possible from freshwater to saltwater, throughout the world. I presently have taken over 440 species from over 60 countries!
