Arizona Fly Fishing: Extras
Antonio was able to send me over some other pictures of this past weekend from his camera. Always kind of interesting seeing a trip from someone else’s point of view. First pool. Looking at this picture, I’m pretty sure I had already lost my net at this point. It would not be a typical day…
Arizona Fly Fishing: The Mogollon Rim
Saturday morning started early as I drove to meet up with a new friend (and now, good buddy) to fish some new water on the Rim. Antonio is a Arizona native and has a great knowledge and even bigger passion for fly fishing in Arizona. We made short work of the hike while bushwacking to…

Arizona Fly Fishing: The Salt River
My mom is in town visiting from the icy Northeast. As we toured around city, we swung by the Salt River below Saguaro Lake. I have always had a love/hate relationship with this stretch of water (actually more just hate), but it’s close proximity made for a quick hour on the water getting my rusty…
