We’ve just returned from our first hosted trip with The Dogwood Lodge in Hopedale, Louisiana, and let me tell you, we were welcomed with some of the best Cajun hospitality you can find. Upon arrival, we were shuttled to the...
Although it’s technically fall, we’ve certainly seen our fair share of winter weather already. This is the time of year where most anglers quit fishing, or are stuck fishing sz24 midges on our technical tailwaters. Our tailwaters are phenomenal fisheries,...
There aren’t many places in Colorado that are as heralded as the greater Gunnison area. With endless amounts of public land, water, and happy fish, it certainly deserves all the credit it receives. Whether you want to fish the trophy...
The age-old questions we get in the shop are “where should I go fishing this weekend?” and “what’s fishing the best right now?” We completely understand needing some help in finding a place to fish, especially for those of us...
