Bit of recon today before an upcoming trip. Snowed off and on all day… heavy fog at times. The eat was pretty steady. Took this new Winston Air II 9’6 5wt out for a spin… fantastic fly rod. The responsiveness in retrieve was top shelf.. hook sets precise. Super practical rod for dry dropper rigs, multi nymph indicator rigs, and light/med streamers. The feel in the play of the fish is everything you’d expect out of a Winston. We’re so excited to get going for the year. To those on the books we thank you… to those looking to fish, we welcome you. Good fishing y’all! #flyfishing #catchandrelease #tailfinn #finnprovisions #browntrout #winstonrods #abelreels #southdakota #blackhills #goodfishing https://www.instagram.com/p/CqRlWhUtMt1/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

We are pleased to introduce Dan Snyder as a new team member for our guide staff this 2023 season. Dan comes to us from our local PHWFF chapter. We’re excited to watch Dan continue to grow in the sport, and share his passion for fly fishing with our clients. Dan was hired on Thursday, and roped this donkey on Friday. Now we’re struggling to catch up… and Dan’s out back looking for the leader stretcher. #flyfishing #catchandrelease #tailfinn #finnprovisions #browntrout #greenhorn #flyfishsouthdakota #blackhillsflyfishing #phwff #visitspearfish #hifromsouthdakota https://www.instagram.com/p/CqAtSOfuEq5/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The young Jedi @noodlesonly23 snuck out to the Sierra’s to check on some of his old haunts. I don’t borrow my @winstonrods Pure 2wt to just anyone… but when he told me he was going to pack in for Goldens… of course I said yes. There isn’t much in California that interests me… but these gems do. Well done Isaac! BTW… let’s all congratulate the young man and his lovely wife who are expecting their first child. It’s a boy! #flyfishing #catchandrelease #tailfinn #finnprovisions #goldentrout #winstonrods #winstonpure #bentsince1929 #congratulations #itsaboy (at Sierra Nevada Mountains) https://www.instagram.com/p/CikmkHfOd_9/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

It’s Sturgis Week here in the Black Hills… to me this means loud pipes, peckerwoods driving, cartoon sized hail is coming, plus sized folks parading in body paint, and generally… the fish are looking up. #flyfishing #catchandrelease #tailfinn #finnprovisions #hopperfishing #sturgisrally #blackhillsflyfishing #hideyokidshideyowife (at Sturgis Bike Rally 2022) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cg9ZUk7OD6Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
