I'm a native of Pennsylvania,
from the Lehigh Valley (Easton) area, and began tying at age 12 with my
grandfather as my mentor. Now in my 60's and I'm ready to teach my
granddaughter the way of the fly rod and fly tying (I hope she's ready too).
I started fishing
wets and nymphs early on and have moved to dry flies and terrestrials. I
have now come full circle. I Just love those wet flies!
I do a lot of my fishing in the Pocono's and surrounding area's streams
and I'm really looking forward to retiring soon.
I also enjoy rod building, restoring bamboo rods, and am an avid bow
hunter. I enjoy swapping fly patterns and sharing tying techniques and
have really gotten quite a kick out of this website.
