Awesome float yesterday on our north flowing gem of a river. Fishing conditions couldn’t have been better. A bit of morning rain, overcast and warm. My buddy and I hooked into a few nice ones, and some respectable multi species numbers. #stoked to be creek #fishing again . . . . . #flyfishing #flyfishingaddict #bassfishing #smallmouth #smallmouthonthefly #bassonthefly #bronzebacks #kayakfishing #canoe #flytier #myfly #zonker #8weight #streamereater #summertimevibes #creekfishing #riverfishing #paddlelife #kayaking #camping #catchandrelease #tightlines #fishon #bigfish #nature #illinoisfishing #illinois #daffangler (at Chicago, Illinois) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPRF8S7jp7N/?utm_medium=tumblr

I’d say all those years living up the hill and washing dirt payed off 🤣100% #organicbiologic and #sustainable about 3 weeks out from #summer veg. 🤙No store bought nutrients or #fertilizer I make my own. Everything is from the land I just help it along. Harvest pics TBA! #garden #summergarden #homestead #homesteading #knowyourfarmer #knowyourfood #wellness #nutrition #notavegan #nodiggarden #nodignotill #compost #wormcastings https://www.instagram.com/p/CBn3_LdjQ_D/?igshid=1xatj3de3riey

Pretty stoked! The easiest thing to grow, and I’ve been failing at it for years. Tried something different this time via @charles_dowding #compost #notill no teas and came out near perfect, not hot, no bolting, almost no bugs and great abundance on the harvest so far. Why didn’t I grow the rest of the salad though? 😂 (at my backyard) https://www.instagram.com/p/CAWOMBhjOad/?igshid=1519mhvzjpuq0

Just scratching my ass, and watching the grass grow. #theshitido #beenmyreality (at BFE) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-7sZR-je_0/?igshid=1002n03mihbtd

Been a minute since I’ve tried to tie any fly, so here is a new one. Made it articulate for their pleasure. What you think? I know it will fish, but will it catch something with #700teeth ? 🤞#babybow #babysteelhead #streamer (at Lake Michigan) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-sC-6KjPqs/?igshid=1iuaolycvcfq3

Well, I was going to make a Beef Wellington, and forgot to get the pastry! 🤦‍♂️ Made one of my favorite😋holiday meals instead. #steakoscar #chateaubriand #bernaise #familystyle #wheresmymichelinstar (at Northpole) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6g_r2tB8dh/?igshid=19r2f4x0ya3o5

Found this cool little art rock next to my car where I was fishing last night. I swear it wasn’t there when I arrived? Took some pics and re hid it within 100 yards of my find. Good luck 🍀 to the next person who finds. @kenosharocks #kenosharocks #wisconsin #wi #art #rock (at Kenosha, Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2mDUyqhgsh/?igshid=g2k4boxrr3lv

Been on an insta-hiatus, but still fishing like a crazy person. Was up in the #northwoods with the fam a couple weeks ago. Went out looking for trout in the #nationalforest, found some decent #bass instead. @natea112 @godfather_fishing and I have been fishing #creeksmallies every weekend since. Hopefully we can keep this winning streak going this weekend. (at Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1PjuwAh43G/?igshid=1l9f5u4i3wt83

Been shaking down #smallies in city creeks on the weekends, probably gonna do it again this weekend. @godfather_fishing @natea112 https://www.instagram.com/p/B0oJIpxBIqZ/?igshid=1c57fyg39rffd

I feel like I’ve been waiting forever to throw some lines. Finally got out tonight, this little #largemouth made my day. 😁 https://www.instagram.com/esum_k/p/Bw8UzxgAevs/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=tblq0qchf68j

Spring creek #browntrout from last week. I want to stomp through the creeks this week, but I promised some friends to go chase steelhead instead. ...TBA (at Wisconsin) https://www.instagram.com/esum_k/p/BvJ_V4CA_xU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18wb4jzizdssk

Poison Tung variation size 18. Awesome winter fly! 🤙 Found some random pearl glass beads in my basement a few weeks ago, they finally found a home on some hooks. https://www.instagram.com/p/BtlhU9nAEXH/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1e74nx81e2c23

Simple winter/spring #caddis 🐛 pattern with an awesome #tungsten bead I tied up earlier. ...also got a light box now so hopefully my 📸 of these little flies turn out better. 😃 https://www.instagram.com/p/BthEtF2gJgm/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ez842ub4kkcl

Been in a #clouserminnow mood. Is it #smallie season yet? #kishcandy https://www.instagram.com/p/BtemuQnADJ3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1kkujp922wzv1

Tied up a few 4” shad #clouserminnow last night. Trying to imagine warmer weather, and #bassonthefly 🎣 https://www.instagram.com/p/BtTmbfVAewf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18cffvxbc6yuy
