Interview: Dr. Biederman

4/10 & 4/11/2018

I’ll be brief, conditions the past two days have been excellent. Tomorrow will be the same or better for dry fly fishing and being outside in general, I plan to take advantage of it while I can. I spent a few hours under cloudy skies on the 10th tossing a …

Chironomidae & S.E. Minnesota

Chironomidae (Diptera): The Non-Biting Midge. They have been everywhere as of late it seems. I was hoping to see more of them this winter season as the last few years hadn’t given up many large emergences that I was able to take advantage of. That’s not to say Midge didn’t …

March 18th, 2014: Faded from Winter

Sit back after a day of work, two hours of quality trout angling, a 5.4 mile run at a pace of 7 min/mile with a glass of red wine, Faded From Winter on the radio and try not to smile. Try not to feel like you’ve got everything the world …

2.12.14

  Just a bit of video from the other day as I trudged through snow drifts in search of open water. I did eventually find some but fishing most of it was a challenge. The afternoon was not without its high moments though as eventually I would come across midge, …
