2021/09/03

I know. I talk about light fly rods a lot on Casting Across. In all seriousness, in today's podcast I talk about the versatility of a shorter and/or lighter fly rod. They're not just gimmicks. They're really helpful for casting line, presenting flies, and playing fish. This episode of The Casting Across Fly Fishing Podcast is brought to you by MANSCAPED.

Camp Close to the Fish

2021/08/27

There are two schools of thought when it comes to sleeping on a fishing trip. Some people want comfort; some people want quick. But the benefits of quick are cost, effort, and proximity to the river. Today I discuss why you'd (potentially) want to sleep in your car, as well as how and when I choose to go that route.

Mid-Season Maintenance

Casting Across Fly Fishing ·

2021/08/20

Most fly fishers do a decent enough job of looking over, cleaning, and organizing their gear before the season starts. But if you have been fishing at all there are a few things that you should take a look at before you head into the fall. Today, I share three different things that I look at as summer wraps up. Maintenance isn't about being obsessive. It is about keeping your gear from failing and potentially keeping a fish from escaping. This episode is brought to you by MANSCAPED. Learn more

Be An Amateur Angling Historian

2021/08/13

Latest and greatest had to start somewhere. Often, that place had a lot going for it too. Having a preliminary knowledge of the history of fly fishing might pay off in really good fishing. More often than not, the reward is going to be in what you learn and how that impacts your time on the water… regardless of if you’re catching fish or not. Today I share three reasons why digging into the history of fly fishing will be beneficial, and three great ways to get started. Learn more about your ad

Head to Toe Summer Fly Fishing

Casting Across Fly Fishing ·

2021/08/06

There is something special about wet wading in the warmest months of the year. It is a pretty unencumbered and carefree way to cast flies to fish. In this episode, I talk about everything that you'll need to wear from your head to your feet. I give some of my suggestions on what I've found to be helpful. More importantly, I think that this discussion will get you thinking about what you take on the water: is it because it works, or because it is just the way you've always done it? Learn more about

Casting Across Fly Fishing ·

2021/07/30

If you can get your fly to a fish, you're casting good enough. However, if you want to cast with a little more accuracy, distance, or reduce fatigue after a long day on the water you might want to think about how you can tweak your cast. In this episode I talk about three simple things that you can do to change up your casting stroke. ...okay, two simple things and one somewhat contrived and weird thing. But it still works.

From the hook set to the release, there are a couple of bad maneuvers that anglers should avoid.

Fly Fishing Accusations, XIV

2021/07/16

You've got questions, I've got (my own stabs at) answers. This week, I've got three great emails to share on the podcast. Two have to do with gear, one pertains to the small and coincidental world that is fly fishing. As always, I appreciate getting emails, messages through the website, and interaction through social media. Casting Across isn't a fly shop or trout town pub, but it is always fun to have a little back and forth with like minded people. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Not too Hot for Trout

Casting Across Fly Fishing ·

2021/07/09

Is fishing for trout off limits in July and August? Are bass and carp the only fair game in the heat of summer? (As if these fish don’t have temperature thresholds…) As is the case in most circumstances, if a “smarter not harder” mindset is employed the fly fisher can absolutely still fish for trout throughout the warmest times of the year.

Warm Water, Small Stream Fly Rods

Casting Across Fly Fishing ·

2021/07/02

Whether it be due to location or preference, some anglers routinely pursue species like bass. Additionally, the waters they frequent aren’t the typical wide smallmouth rivers or vast largemouth lakes. Our nation is covered with small steams that contain robust populations of bass and other warm water fish. If your local creek is where you’re going to be spending a lot of time, isn’t the right rod the right choice? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Trip Report - VA Double

2021/06/25

Part of this year's Father's Day gift was "a day to go fishing." (Note: this is a great gift to give someone.) Now, I get to fish a lot. But this gifted day was special because it was to be used while we were on vacation in Virginia. Picking a spot to fish wasn't easy, as I have plenty of local favorites and there are countless great opportunities. However, I was able to nail something down. Well, two things.

Rocky Mountain National Park provides plenty of fantastic fly fishing opportunities. Rocky Mountain is one of the most visited national parks in the country on an annual basis. It boasts numerous visitor centers, hundreds of miles of trails, and most of the iconic species of the region. All that, and a lot of trout. Moreover, there are plenty of options for the angler.

Fly Local

2021/06/11

Who doesn't love a good fly fishing trip? Whether it be exotic locations on the other side of the globe or premier destinations across the country, most anglers long for exciting water in which to fish. But what about the creek down the road? The trout might be stocked, the ponds might only hold sunfish, and the ambiance might not be pristine. But there is value. I also discuss how staying local is valuable in three other aspects of fly fishing. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Sunglasses: Don't Fish Without Them

Casting Across Fly Fishing ·

2021/06/04

Aside from my rod, line, reel, and flies, there is no more important piece of fishing gear than sunglasses. Yes, they keep the sun out of your eyes. But a good pair of sunglasses will help you catch fish and keep you safe. There aren't many gadgets that you can slide into a vest pocket that you can say that about. In this week's podcast I talk about how to choose frames, how to select lenses, and how I chose the specific sunglasses that I fish in. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Fly Fishing Gifts

2021/05/28

Giving gifts to a fly fisher isn't always the easiest thing to do. Admittedly, we're a pretty particular bunch. I mean, we have preferences on which kind of nippers we use to cut millimeters of tippet. In this week's podcast, I do give some specific ideas. However, I also talk about a few kinds of gifts that you can give (or ask for) that are virtually foolproof. There are some gifts that anyone, anywhere, regardless of how long they've fished or what they fish for, can use. Learn more about your

Fishing in the Margin

2021/05/21

Why keep a fly rod in the back of your car at all times? If you can tolerate it rolling around, you'll set yourself up for some good to great fly fishing at a moment's notice. And if you haven't fished for a while, any fly fishing is good to great. Recently I had a meeting fall through. It turned into an hour of fishing for brook trout in a brand new beaver pond. The results and the experience were both more than I had hoped or bargained for. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit

Maybe your idea of hiring a fly fishing guide simply entails fish. While I don't think anyone would object to catching fish, there are a few other things that separate the good guides from the not-so-good ones. More importantly, there are some things that separate the great from the good. If you're going to be spending hundreds or thousands of dollars? Great is probably what you're looking for.

In this week's episode, I answer questions about rods, reels, and leaders. But they're some awfully specific questions. That being said, I'm confident that you - the fly fisher - will appreciate and benefit from the scenarios that elicited these questions. What pushes us to experiment and innovate is questions, problems, and curiosity. Hopefully what I talk about today gets you thinking and trying new things out on the water.
