My friend Mark Melnyk travels the world hosting episodes of The New Fly Fisher, an old-school fly-fishing program that’s adapting to its web-only format quite nicely.

Earlier this week, Utah’s Division of Wildlife Resources, along with volunteers from Trout Unlimited, delivered rainbow trout eggs to 33 Utah schools taking part in the Trout in the Classroom program.

Photo courtesy of Bassmaster Classic As I watched Chloe Kim defy gravity on a snowboard last night, I was reminded of the splendor and the impact of the Olympics, and what it means to the compeitors who have devoted their lives to just a sliver of actual living. For Kim, it’s the half-pipe. She learned…

This is a great time to year to go winter fishing with a 2-handed rod.
“The why?” It’s the sleepless newborn nights, looking out the window wondering what it will be like when you can take her. It’s putting her in a chest pack at 11-days-old and cautiously stepping into the stream to catch the fish that shares her name. It’s accidentally dipping her one-year-old toe into…
