The FlyFish Journal

Excited to have written a feature in the new issue of The FlyFish Journal on the mouse year phenomenon in New Zealand. Last year was a special year given the fact it was a mega mast and the size of some of the trout—most notably on the South Island—was jaw dropping. What’s a mega mast? Read it to find out!

Idaho Falconry

Spent the day yesterday with a falconer and his gyrfalcon. It was an absolutely stunning yet frigid day and ended successfully with a mallard to the hand.

A few recent images from a morning with a local falconer… Hopefully more to come.

The FlyFish Journal 12.2

New work in issue 12.2 of The FlyFish Journal in a feature about the Junin de los Andes area of Argentina by Fred Melton. Check out the new issue to see the entire piece.

Diego Gonzalez del Solar with the second flat of the day on a pretty remote dirt road not too far from Alumine, Argentina. It was a stunning evening and the mood was high and nobody was really that bummed—the spare, useless, was flacid in the back of the car— and we laughed a bit and kicked small rocks around not long before a 10:30 pm sunset. Within 15 minutes or so, a wildly short duration, a bus was headed our direction and Diego waved it to a stop. It was taking laborers from Junin back to their village after a day’s work. They let us on and the driver rallied the bus like a Baja 1,000 driver and a woman with short dark hair sitting up front with a thermos of hot water between her legs passed around matte and chatted with the driver. The bus was sparsely occupied and the faces were pleasant but fatigued. An hour passed and the bus stopped at our place along the Alumine River…

The Drake Magazine Fall 2020

Excited to have a story—words and photography—on Christian Reid in the new issue of The Drake magazine. Christian has fished more consecutive days and nights—especially nights—than anyone I know. Only 5 or so years ago he fished every day for two consecutive years. He mouse fishes through the night most nights over the course of an entire season on Silver Creek with the exception of the brown trout spawn the late fall. He’s got a unique story and a willingness to put his time in on the water that very few have.

Here’s an image of the opening spread. To read and see the entire story grab a copy.

Silver Creek, Idaho Diptych

Here are two images that were taken from the same spot just seconds apart on Silver Creek this fall before the snow fell. The two of these are now available as a diptych. They can be purchased as two standalone framed prints for a long narrow wall. Someone could also purchase just one of these…

Available as gicleé prints or on metal.

I am currently printing on both fine art paper and metal. The two prints below were both recently printed on fine art watercolor paper.
