Bio

Growing up in Wyoming at the foot of the Big Horn Mountains I quickly became an addict of chasing trout.It all started with a Dave’s Hopper an old Fiberglass rod and a Pflueger automatic reel.I did whatever it took to get on those little creeks including skipping a lot of school.I became very used to throwing whatever I wanted and every fish in a pool trying to eat it.I felt like I was “God with a fly rod”. My freshman year of high school I received the devastating news that we were moving to Idaho. But as fate would have it, we moved to a small town that was only 45 minutes from the fabled Henry’s Fork. I would borrow/steal my mother’s 1978 wood paneled station wagon and drive over as much as I could, to get my rear end spanked by that river. Over time though I started to figure it out and became infatuated with its mystique and tricky little secrets. It was here that my addiction came full force, and I couldn’t get enough.

My obsession and passion has turned into a career for me. I started my guiding career while in college in 1999. And have been lucky enough to guide some of the greatest waters the west has to offer (Henry’s Fork, South Fork of the Snake, and Teton Rivers). Currently I teach high school in Utah and guide in the summers for World Cast Anglers. Guiding and fly fishing has introduced me to some of the greatest people I know, and shown me to some of the coolest places on the planet. Besides my love for trout, The “Salt” is always on mind. And living so close to some amazing warm water fishing in Utah I spend a little too much time chasing Tiger Musky, Smallmouth, and Carp.
