A tranquil alpine scene unfolds along the edge of a mountain lake—a mirror of solitude and quiet anticipation. The rippled blue surface stretches out beneath soft clouds and green-blanketed ridges, their reflections shimmering in the cool northern light. In the foreground, a turquoise kayak rests at the water’s edge, angled as if poised for adventure. Its paddles and gear are ready, a fly rod laid neatly across the bow—everything set for a morning of fly-fishing in the still mountain air. Beside it, my buddy’s Border Terrier leans over the shallows, taking a refreshing drink, its reflection flickering beside the kayak. The grasses and evergreens frame the moment like a living border—lush, untamed, and deeply green—while the gentle lap of the lake whispers of calm beneath distant peaks. I’m about ready to hop inside this kayak and push off into the heart of the wilderness.

What makes it special? 🌟

The Itchen is globally famous for its fly-fishing heritage 🎣

It is also one of the main 6 chalk rivers in England that create the conditions needed by the endangered Atlantic Salmon to spawn and grow before heading out to sea within the year. 🐟

Ted Williams wasn’t just a baseball legend — he was also an elite fly fisherman. 🎣

Inducted into the Fishing Hall of Fame in 2000, his average cast reached 85–95 feet, far beyond the typical 50–60.

Get out of your mind and into the river! #NatureRocks

A quiet forest creek flows under the autumn sun. The golden and orange leaves of the surrounding trees are reflected on the calm water. At the center, a slender tree with vivid orange leaves stands out strikingly.

#MondayMotivation

These colors don’t last long 🤔
I should go fly fishing 😊

A view of a swift creek cascading over a rocky bed, running through an autumn-colored forest on a sunny day with some clouds. The sky is narrowly open between the trees with orange and golden-yellow leaves.

Ridley Creek, PA

About 25 minutes to reach this beautiful state park, but I usually visit creeks that are much closer to my home 😊

Just like work… stretching too far can cause burnout, but a little stretch can take you a long way 🤔

A slightly hazy, amber-golden beer served in a pint glass with its can beside it. The can features a trout on the label, it’s Two Hearted IPA.

#MidweekMotivation

This IPA doesn’t just taste great…the label also looks awesome. I’ve had this beer plenty of times, but I finally tried it on draft a few weeks ago, and it was fantastic 🤩 and I need to go fly fishing 😉

7 Underrated Creepy Creatures Bats and snakes get an undeserved bad rap. But here are some creepy crawlies that might keep you up at night.

Forget the Halloween bats and spiders.

Here are the creatures that should really give you the creeps.

Multiple fallen trees are piled up in the creek that runs through the woods on a cloudy day. A fly rod sits on one of the logs.

#WoodJamWednesday

This happens and can get in the way of fly fishing🙂
Fly fishing is “usually” not physically demanding, so this makes it a bit more of a workout as I climb over and around the logs😏
Plus, woodjams sometimes create new fishing spots😊

A creek flows through the forest, its slow-moving water reflecting the trees and the narrow opening of the cloudy sky.

#ThursdayThoughts

Got a frozen shoulder, the left side😭
Too much intense writing for two grant deadlines 😞
I am right-handed and guessing fly fishing might be the cure🤔
Double hauling isn’t quite enough to move my left arm😕
Time to practice some left-arm casting😉

Fishing under the canopy, a great nymphing and dry fly spot, always a decent brownie lurking in the riffle, runs and pots... 🎣🎣🎣

For a positive start to your Monday, here are some more of our country's natural beauty from my fly-fishing trips out west.

A view of swiftly running water through the forest, sunlight streaming through the woods, while the creek lay mostly in shade.

Hay Creek, PA

Today was one of those days when trout cared about something floating 😊
All three trout I caught took my indicator fly 😉
I could have switched to a terrestrial fly, but I didn’t bother 🙂

Public lands sell-off is back. Idaho’s delegation must fight it | Opinion As a father, I want to be able to tell my kids that we fought for the common lands and waters that make our home — and our country — the place that it is. | Opinion

More on Public Lands from Mark Deming at NRS: “The numbers speak volumes: Outdoor recreation supports nearly 37,500 Idaho jobs and 5 million nationwide. Healthy, protected public lands aren’t sentiment or fringe issue–they’re an anchor for our local economies...”
