    About this series

    A Penn's Waters Penning – Forty Years A Fly Fisher

    Over a four-year period, 1998-2002, these magazine articles appeared in Pennsylvania Angler & Boater, Pennsylvania Outdoor Times, Pennsylvania Wildlife, Florida Sportsman, The Maine Sportsman, The Mountain Journal, and Susquehanna Magazine. Within these articles you'll find humor, useful information, and an insight into a life time of fishing and forty years of fly fishing.

    My earliest memories, not just my fishing memories, are sitting in a 14' Sea Mac with my father catching perch on the Chesapeake Bay. I later learned I'd been fishing and on the water even before I'd been born. You could say it's in my blood.

    Those early saltwater experiences lead to being mentored in the ways of freshwater fishing using spinners like Swiss Swings and Martin Panthers. In 1971, I was introduced to the ways of the fly fisher and over the next forty years that lead to fly fishing in every region of Pennsylvania using dry and wet fly techniques, but eventually favoring streamer fishing the Keystone State's rivers for trout and smallmouth bass. Streamer fishing became my favorite technique because all my 4-5 pound trout and smallmouth bass were caught on fly rods using streamers. It was the fly fishing equivalent of spin fishing those Swiss Swings.

    In 1994, I began saltwater fly fishing in New Jersey, Maine, and Florida. There's no better way to test a graphite fly rod and your mettle than to latch onto a saltwater game fish. Today, I find great joy in tossing my own streamer and bucktail designs while wading a Pennsylvania river and having some unseen lunker attach itself to the end of my fly line.
