Once in a Lifetime

When I awoke, I was standing on the stream bank with a 3wt in my hand and something shaking the end of the line. Realizing it was a fish, I land the beautiful ten inch brown trout. I kneel down to release her back into the water and watch the amber gem swim away.

A Look at B.C.I Fall Trip

Browns, Brooks, and Bows were all caught this past weekend while 3 B.C.I brothers camped out on the banks of the Savage.

WHATS UP WITH THE SAVAGE RIVER?

With all of this winter stuff finally happening here in the east, I found it time to tie flies and do a little investigating. With a little time spent on organizing gear and fly inventory under my belt, I figure i would get tying and get answers. There were some things that went down a […]
