New Blog

My friend Amanda has started a blog, www.amandalikestofish.wordpress.com. She's fairly new to fly-fishing, but totally consumed with it (like any reasonable person). Read about her adventures--and probably a few of them will include me!

A Peek into Brown Drakes

Big Brown Bugs from Silver Creek Outfitters on Vimeo.



My buddy Jamie Briscoe, a guide at Silver Creek Outfitters, narrates this video which gives you a peek into the Brown Drake hatch on Silver Creek. As always, my favorite week of the year.

Oh my god, I'm tired.



So, I've totally neglected the blog, the plants, the laundry, the bills, and probably a lot of other stuff. It's summer, though, and that means I'm out on the water. We've had a fantastic season so far. Silver Creek has been unbelievable and I've even been impressed with the Wood. The Lower Lost should be fishable any day now. I realized the other day that I haven't fished myself since July 11, but I've been on the water every day and have enjoyed every minute of it. My schedule is a lot less chaotic after Labor Day and I'm a little sad that it's so soon, but I'm looking forward to a lot of personal fishing this fall. I hope it's not this long until I post again!
