In fly fishing, we usually end up being both students and teachers in some measure, simultaneously. While I've progressed along my fishing journey, I know there's still much to learn, with many anglers far more experienced than myself. I’ve learned a great deal from videos, books and magazines, but there’s no substitute for hands on instruction and mentoring. There are many anglers who I’ve learned from, but I'm particularly grateful to Peter Morse, Brian Henderson, Juan Luis Del Carmen and Aitor Coteron for their casting instruction, and to Tom Jarman, Stewart Dick, Pablo Castro Pinos, and David Garcia Ferreras for their river fishing expertise. If you ever have the chance to fish or train with any of these exceptional anglers, grab the opportunity with both hands!

This quiet sport still takes us to beautiful places and allows us to connect with nature. Trout hunting with a fly rod challenges us to physically and mentally enter a world where sophisticated prey holds the advantage. To become absorbed into the complexities of this gentle endeavor is the total escape.
