Pulling Trout From Cypress Knees

I’d never been to Arkansas. So, when the opportunity came up at work to head down there and have some meetings and fish the fabled big trout tail waters of the Little Red or the White I jumped at the chance. I knew of the Little Red and the fact that it was the water […]

1 Year In and Here We Come Again

Bug Chuckers Inc. reaches 1st year goals In June of 2011 a group of good friends that have been fly fishing together decided to create Bug Chuckers Inc. We had a solid idea on what we wanted to do but none of us would have ever guessed how it was going to turn out. […]

Laboratory: For the Benefit and Enjoyment of the People

I hate to admit it, but at times here in the western fringes of the east coast, I get a little resentful. Resentful may be a bit strong, maybe slightly rebuffed.

Apon arrival, with our excitement at a peak, we then get dressed […]

Bug Chucking in the Forest

Every year as far back as I can remember my family and I would trout fish together at our Cabin in the Allegheny National Forest. I began trout fishing at a very young age using the traditional child set up, “Zebco and night crawlers”. As the years went by I began to notice people fishing […]

1st Ever North Branch Float

As each spring arrives I start to get that urge to get behind the oars. I started floating rivers in rafts when I lived in Alaska. That was the start of an addiction for me. When I graduated from College my parents asked me what they could get me for a gift and my response […]
