I’m not sure why I only tie flies at night. It used to be because of the shift I worked. Now, I’m not on any shift. My wife says I focus best at night; so, I’ll go with my night owl characteristics being the reason I only tie at night. Either way, it really doesn’t […]

I’m Back!
It’s been a while, but after a few weeks of preparing, getting married, partying, and relaxing I’m back to reality. I quickly realized how much there is to do around the new place and take care of other business (find a job). Unfortunately, the blog has suffered a bit in my absence. I’ve lost about […]
You know you wanna fish that
Okay, probably not easiest on a fly, but regardless of tackle you know you wanna fish that. I know I sure do!
Oasis to Write
It’s been a busy we with little to no fishing to accompany. I’m not complaining though because I’m getting married. My apologies to my frequent readers, all 5 of y’all, for the lack of content recently. I wish I had more time to show you all of the ponds, rivers, and lakes I’ve been drooling […]
Moving out
Not much going on in my world of fly fishing. I really need to get on or in the water before I leave Nashville. After Thursday I’ll be gone for several weeks for my wedding and honeymoon. Don’t expect to see many of my catches throughout the rest of the month, which means I’m probably […]
Random End of the Week Thought
I’ve looking for a new reel for a while now. Who am I kidding…a fly fisherman is always looking for/at new gear. I’ve been looking at new rods, reels, etc. But if I can justify needing a new anything it’s going to be a new fly reel. The Ross reel I’ve been using for the […]
Long-Weekend Roundup (Unabridged & Overdue)
A lot happened last weekend and I’m not sure I’m going to get it all in. Last weekend was my bachelor party at Lake Hardin. Between wrapping up the weekend and moving/preparing to move into our new house, it has been fairly difficult to sit down and talk about what went on. I’m going to […]
Long-Weekend Roundup (Abridged)
Much happened this weekend. Here’s the skinny: – Bachelor party weekend. So, yeah. Lots happened. – A good bit of that time was spent fishing. Hooked several fish I haven’t caught in a while. Unfortunately, no bass this trip. – Carp people, I finally get it. More to come on that. – Lots of fishing […]
State of the Blog Address
Hello, After a few months of posting, now seems to be the appropriate time to address my plans for this blog. If you follow my personal blog then you’re aware that this whole thing was intended to be experimental. I wasn’t sure that it was something I wanted to keep up, but after going at […]
Weekend Round-Up
It was a good weekend. Sunday didn’t provide much more than Saturday, but my wonderful fiancee was with me which always makes not catching fish a lot more fun (she took the glamour shot you see above). The fish still stayed away from the buggers and streamer, and the top-water action was just a tease. […]
