1/11/19: Solitude

It just so happened that some good news came my way a while back and then a few days later the bad followed. I won’t get into it but just know that for those of us who fish because we love it and not because we are constantly hunting for …

The Brookie: Jan. 5th, 2019

I work on the weekends and during the week. It’s becoming increasingly difficult to find time to fish when I have a nearly two year old at home. I don’t want to miss important time with her as she grows up. She’s at a stage where she doesn’t want to …

Seasons end pt. 5

It’s the second to last day of the season and I’m home not feeling any sort of urgency to get out and fish. I have to work overnight starting at 7 pm meaning I have to leave the house by six. I’ve got the afternoon to fish but its a …

Seasons end pt. 3

It’s 8 am and I’m pulling into a Kwik Trip parking lot. The skies are overcast, it’s moderately windy and it feels cold, colder than I was expecting. I brought my waders but was hoping to avoid wearing them. I guess avoiding them wasn’t going to happen. Carl pulls up, …

Seasons end pt. 1

Rather than concentrate on generating blog posts, I focused on what really mattered over the past two weeks. Catching trout and enjoying the last weeks, days and hours of my 2018 Minnesota trout season. It’s been a bit of a battle between the rain that seemed like it might never …

October 4th, 2018

My fall goals are changing due to conditions and timing. I have to be water and go with the flow as it were. Last Thursday Carl and I checked off one of my fall goals. Chase after the brookies before the fall season ends. I’ll be brief and let the …

Short Film: Goldilocks

Short Film: Goldilocks

When you managed to find fishable water amidst a swath of blown streams you should be pretty pleased but to be able to find a stream that’s not a little stained and not a river of mud but instead is just right with the perfect amount of moderate stain you’ve …

winonaflyfactory June 20, 2018 June 20, 2018 Carp on the Fly / Fishing The Streams

The Second Half: June 14th, 2018

If you haven’t read the First Half I suggest you do so as it will give this post better context. Sitting on the bank of the creek with a beer in one hand and watching Carl strip his crane fly across the surface I took note of the time, 3pm. …

Fly Factory Films: Searching

Blood, sweat and tears went into this project. I tried to push myself beyond my comfort zone, working harder to tell a story and to move away from only images set to music. I started, then restarted this project more times than I can count but I never give up. …

A Busy Weekend: 4/21 & 4/22/2018
winonaflyfactory April 23, 2018 April 23, 2018 Fishing The Streams

A Busy Weekend: 4/21 & 4/22/2018

I fished both Saturday and Sunday this past weekend. Going into the weekend I had tempered my expectations for a couple of reasons. 1st, the weekend had the best weather we’ve had since last fall and because the opening weekend was a bust for many I knew anglers would be …
