Throwing streamers for musky and small mouth bass in the midwest will always be some of my favorite fish to chase. I’ve been lucky enough to fish for trout in Patagonia and catch a few redfish in the bayou of Louisiana.

Keeping my raft upright in whitewater, camping, fishing, and traveling

Favorite Thing About Guiding:

Being able to share my passion for fly fishing and seeing clients' progression in the sport. There’s nothing better than the smile after a client lands their first trout!
