Member since March 2019 Calgary, Canada
Background
I’m an avid fly fisher and truly passionate about the area I live and fish in. I became a guide because there was no better way to share the excitement, the journey, and the adventure with all anglers from around the world. My addiction to fly fishing is about the cast. The elegant dance of the fly line as it moves through the air. The perfect placement of the fly as it so gracefully lands on the water. Definitely, my favorite fish are Rainbow and Brown Trout.
