How cold is too cold?
January 16, 2013
With this blasted cold weather that wont seem to go away I got to thinking, how cold it too cold to fish. I have fished in -12 degrees before (with no wind) that that no wind makes all the difference in the world. I only lasted about an hour or so before I got off [...]
The Year of the Trout
February 18, 2012
Written by Chris Kurnik with Western Trout Wrangler Beginning around the end of January this year, there has been a change in the river. Big fish here on the Truckee River are no longer residing in the mysterious unfishable depths, but instead have migrated to more fishable waters, have been holding along runs in large quantities, [...]
Taking Your Time
January 4, 2012
I saw this video and it made me think of how I feel like I have evolved over the last few years with fly fishing. I now love fishing to the hard to catch trout. I love getting to the river and having to figure out what they are feeding on and not just throw [...]
I wasn’t built for Winter fishing
December 5, 2011
Written by Jen Kugler from Colorado, website - Fly Fishilicious It had been 34 days since I last had fish on my hands. Even though I had gone out a couple of times since then, fishing was the game and skunk was its name. The cabin fever was setting in pretty strong again. I finally got a [...]
Frenzy Poetry
March 29, 2011
I found this short poetry quote going through some of my Dad’s fishing binders where he kept all his reports and secret spots and I really liked it so here it is. I don’t know who wrote it so if anyone has heard it before let me know the author. “The glowing lights of [...]
Steak for Trout
October 24, 2010
This past year I have fished more and more with streamers and some of my favorites are streamers from Kelly Galloup. Kelly Galloup’s the Slide Inn is located on the Madison River. I once read an interview he gave for a popular fly fishing magazine and he described he theory on why he ties the [...]
Fly Fishing and Social Media
October 21, 2010
I really haven’t written much lately for the blog so I decided to put some thoughts down. I have a hall pass from the wife this Saturday to go fishing and I have been thinking a lot about where I should go. I threw out my question into the social media universe and got some [...]
Frenzy Friday Videos
March 20, 2009
Is there a funnier show on TV right now than the Office? I think we can all relate to people we know that cast themselves as characters from the Office. Here is a clip of a sales role play call between Dwight and Jim with Michael critiquing the call. Good Stuff. ENJOY! Perfect analogy of [...]
Man Rules
February 17, 2009
We always hear “The Rules” from the female side but are our rules. Add these to the lists you have already have. MEN ARE NOT MIND READERS. LEARN TO WORK THE TOILET SEAT. YOU’RE A BIG GIRL. IF IT’S UP, PUT IT DOWN. WE NEED IT UP, YOU NEED IT DOWN. YOU DON’T HEAR US [...]
Get better at fly fishing without actually fishing?
January 14, 2009
Remember when Michael Jordan sank that game winning jump shot against the Utah Jazz to secure his sixth NBA Championship in 1998? (Yeah, he pushed off of Byron Russell, but that’s not the point here.) How about Tiger Woods’ domination at the ’97 masters? Or maybe Adam Vinatieri’s game winning field goal to propel the [...]

November 22, 2008
Taken from Xstream Outdoors. This is an issue I have been debating over the past year and fishing the Provo River last night finally has pushed me to share my thoughts on the issue. I grew up hearing all the quotes about working hard for what you get…”Practice makes perfect”, “Step by Step”, “If you [...]
Summer is almost gone!!
August 8, 2008
Thanks to Travis for the great recap on the Frenzy 08 and thanks to Hostess for making Zingers. I don’t have any pictures but I was able to fish the Logan River up Logan canyon last week. I don’t fish it often enough to know where all the good spots are but it is such [...]
