I’ve been busy these past two weeks. Turns out learning an entirely different video editing program is daunting and frustrating at times but in the end will likely be a major upgrade resulting in faster smoother post production work. I carried with me multiple cameras and fly rod in an …
40’s in February. I couldn’t help myself and on Valentines day none the less. Guess my wife’s gift to me was letting me bust out to touch trout, hunt for rising fish and film as much as I could while doing so. I left as early as I could and …
I am loving this winter season and despite the absolute bitter cold Ryan and I have been getting after it. The sun and lack of wind made being out so much more comfortable and enjoyable. I have to give Ryan credit as he stepped up his filming game this time …

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 …
