The Nail Knot

I had the pleasure of meeting a writer in this small world of fly fishing at the 2009 Great Waters Fly Fishing Show, in Schaumburg Illinois, last month . John is a native of Madison,Wisconsin and is an avid outdoorsmen and Fly Fisherman.

In the first of his three book series he combines his love of fly fishing with a murder mystery. He introduces Dog , a star struck, vodka -Tang drinking, self proclaimed fish bum who travels the country fishing  and ends up in the beautiful town of Black Earth Wisconsin. This is where he meets a strange group of people &  gets wrapped up in the politics of trout stream preservation along with a dead body that intrigues him with each passing minute. Dog and his so far trusty RV, he takes a load off and rests a bit in Black Earth while trying to fish &  look  for the killer.

This books takes you to your favorite lunge pool or bend in the run and makes you want to keep turning the pages.  If your a die hard spring creek guy like me you will enjoy this easy, well written book by a local artisan who has the passion we all have inside us.

I had the pleasure to review the Raising the Ghost video from the guys at Fly Boy Fishing. And by far the best I have seen thus far. I love the thought that went into this vid has great scenery shots a lot of first hand knowledge from the pro interviews. This is just one of those vids you have to have. I have seen a ton of the vids out there and this one exceeds them all. Dry fly for chrome, this is tough and not heard of . So support Save the Wild Steelhead  and order this vid. You will not be disappointed.

Raising The Ghost

Videos and others a like can be purchased at the Midwest’s  Premiere Fly Fishing Store.

Ok, Its been 25-30 degrees outside in the midwest for the past four months. I tied many a flies and read tons of fly fishing magazines, organized all my gear (twice), cleaned my reels, wiped down my rods, bought new stuff & held on to the old stuff. I can’t take this anymore, I need to get out of here. I need a spot of water that I can fish here in the midwest. So I think I had enough and planning on fish soon. With much research and preperation I am taking off to the Little Elkhart River in Bristol Indiana. Trout, Steelhead… I need it. Life On The Fly.
