My casting technique has been described as 'chaotic,' 'creative,' and 'please stop before you hurt someone.' I prefer 'avant-garde.

Tuesday confession: Spent more time watching fly fishing videos yesterday than actually working. Also spent more time watching fly fishing videos than actually catching fish. It's a system.

This is the weekend I finally figure out what I'm doing. (Narrator: He would not figure out what he was doing.)

Friday checklist: ✅ Procrastinate at work ✅ Check weather 47 times ✅ Reorganize fly box ✅ Accept that I'll still bring the wrong flies anyway...

One more day until I can disappoint fish in person instead of just disappointing my coworkers via Zoom.

Day 47 of telling myself I need 'just one more fly.' My wallet has filed a restraining order.

The fish were biting yesterday. I was at work. This is the way.
#flyfishing

The fish and I have an understanding: they pretend to be interested, I pretend to know what I'm doing.

Friday means rigging rods, checking leaders, and dreaming about tomorrow’s drift. Where’s your water calling you this weekend?

My fly box looks less like an organized tackle system and more like a garage sale after a tornado.

Hiking with friends is just trauma bonding at elevation. You’re either sharing trail mix or swearing at the incline together.

Fishing teaches patience, but it also teaches perspective. The fish aren’t the only reward; you walk away with a story, a sunrise, and a little more peace than you had before.

Fly fishing with a friend: half therapy session, half comedy show. By the end, we’ve solved zero problems, caught two fish, and created enough inside jokes to last a lifetime.

Ouch. That must have been quite the fall. I'm aging out of this stuff, for sure.

Just like the river, Mondays keep flowing whether we’re ready or not. Might as well wade in with a smile (and coffee). ☕

They say fly fishing is relaxing. Yeah, right. Yesterday I spent 20 minutes trying to climb up a muddy bank in waders, slipping every step like a cartoon character. By the time I made it up, I looked like I’d wrestled a hog in a swamp.

Casting in the wind is like arguing with a toddler. You’re not winning, you’re just managing chaos.

Some days the river gives you trout;

Some days it gives you time to breathe.

And some days, you give the river to your kids.

The Hornberg Doodle, phase 1. More to come. Inspired by @backalleyfly.bsky.social

I love it already!

If you could only fish one fly pattern for a year, what’s your pick? (No, you can’t say ‘Woolly Bugger’ 😉)

Ugh... My desk is cluttered 🤪

Absolutely I will

Guide friends!

I have some questions for you.

If you guide shoot me a message. If you know a guide, tag them here. I want to ask a few questions.
#flyfishing #guides #fishing

They are top notch people, for sure. I'm honored and excited to get started on this project with them.

Dream gig unlocked!

Getting to build a website for a brand I’ve admired for years is one thing.
Getting to tie flies with their gear while I do it?
That’s a dream come true.

Do you think they'll notice if I forget to send back the sample products? 🤔😜

The boy and I took a nice 6 mile float on the fourth with our chosen family. #SACO #DadLife

Of course I don't have my gear with me this morning... #flyfishing

4th of July weekend: the perfect time to celebrate freedom… by escaping responsibilities and losing flies to trees like a true patriot. 🇺🇸😂 #HolidayWeekend #FlyFishing
