Fly Fishing Adventures
Jeff’s summaries of his fly fishing exploits.
Mount Rushmore and My Lake Trout
There are two kinds of people in the world…those who have been to and seen Mount Rushmore, and those who haven’t; up until just recently, Vickie was the latter. We had finally arrived in Rapid City, South Dakota and taking the 30 minute drive up Highway 16 was high on our to-do list. First, I […]
Small Creek Smallies
The video that follows was shot on a hot mid-June day in southern Indiana. It is a small creek, the water was low and clear….making for some pretty skittish smallmouth bass. I think you will notice that I am using a longer rod than usual and tried to make long casts to get the fly […]

My oldest son, Harrison, which many of you remember from a few years back, is now finished with college and working at Mistwood Country Club. Our plan […]
