Standing tall (ish) on the bow platform—on my tiptoes, because even up here, I need that extra inch of optimism.
I’m locked in on the grassline like I’m chasing browns in Montana… meanwhile the redfish are probably cruising somewhere completely random just to humble me.

I’m stepping out from behind the camera and into the wild… tying live next Wednesday, 4pm, at @cabelas in Thornton, CO.
Come say hi, ask fly questions, and learn the Rojo Midge.

🎣 Second redfish of my NOLA trip—and I’m officially hooked. Nothing like that copper flash to keep you coming back. Can’t wait to return and chase some bulls!

When the ponytail goes up, it’s time to tie.
I’ve got my vise out and I’m in the mood to make something… but I don’t know what yet.
So tell me:
🎣 What should I tie next?
💻 Would you ever want to tie along in a livestream or online hang?
🧵 I might be tying at a small local event soon — stay tuned!

Let’s talk rubber legs. (Or this stonefly nymph imitation with a very flashy tail! I couldn't help myself. 😂)
I tied two versions — one with a bead head and one without.
So here’s my question:
🎯 When do you reach for a weighted version over an unweighted one?
🧠 Is it about water speed? Depth? Gut?

Bundled like a marshmallow but smiling like I just won the lottery 🎣🌈
I didn’t pack for Wyoming’s spring mood swings, so I had to wear every layer I brought… plus a few from my guide (MVP status).
The wade fishing was incredible and I cannot wait to get back out there this year.

The Easter Bunny showed up a little early this year… and she's headed for the salt 🐰🌊
Not quite a tarpon bunny — a little fluffier than planned, but I think she’s got potential!
Not bad for a first hop, right? 🐣💥

Wearing green, thinking pink.🦐
This little shrimp pattern takes me right back to Amelia Island, where a guide gave me my first shrimp tying lesson after a day on the flats. Learning on the water, tying back at the bar—doesn’t get much better than that.
Flats by day, flash by night!

Me vs. SolarRez 🫠
Every time I open one of these tubes, it immediately starts squirting out like it's been waiting its whole life for this moment.
Do y’all have any tricks for keeping the floodgates closed? Or is this just part of the resin life? 😅

Testing out some Nymph hat magic… would anyone rock one of these?👀🧢
Thinking about dipping a toe into the merch game. Curious who’d be into it.
Fishy & fun! Just like the brand.

Wearing my Cubs hat with excitement! Headed to Chicago next week for my very first game at Wrigley Field.⚾️
Little known secret: I always bring my scorebook to games and keep score by hand. Total baseball nerd energy. (Yes I fish AND keep score...just sayin')

No, that’s not me talking — but yes, that is a gorgeous brown trout I caught in Montana last year. 🎣✨
He’s just here to speak the truth while I flex my fish.

So apparently, I show too much cleavage to fish… or tie flies… or exist on the internet without someone telling me I don’t belong in this space.
It’s giving... middle school flashbacks when I was ferociously bullied. But guess what? I survived middle school (as a student, teacher, AND principal!).

Okay she’s messy… but she’s got personality 😅 First redfish crack fly I’ve ever tied and I threw the whole bench at it…so…many…materials on this fly! But hey—I learned a lot and had fun doing it.
