Read moreWeekend Warrior: Don’t think Twice
Quick little update for you stripers fiends this Friday afternoon (what day is it, really?).

Read moreTactics and Gear: Fly fishing
Listen, I’m by no means a #flygod (although someday I will be). In the timeline of fly rod immortality, I’m a mere babe. But I’ve put enough time in where I can preach the steps to becoming a respected angler on the river or flats. Before my acceptance of the fly gods, the old and the […]

Read moreNovember Flood Tide
We fish in November because after months of relentlessly pursuing something, it would be uncomfortable to quit it cold turkey. The whole “not fishing” thing is something that needs to be eased into.
