Just a few years ago, and while still in my 30s, I was required to have both of my hips replaced as the result of arthritis and overuse. My ankles, unfortunately, are in about the same shape as my hips. Rolled ankles, sprains and softball sized swelling are maladies with which I’ve become all too…
Sweetwater Travel Company is located in Livingston, Montana. It was founded by the three Vermillion brothers – Dan, Jeff and Pat – and long time friend, Ron Meek in 1995 to build and manage ‘best of class’ fly fishing lodges around the world. Equally important to us was the desire to create an angling business…
Editor’s note: The biggest sporting event of spring, the NCAA basketball tournament, is simply not happening this year thanks to the coronavirus pandemic. Anglers, though, can still effectively “social distance” and go fishing in areas where it’s safe and legal to leave the house, using their favorite flies. In that spirit, TU and our friends…
The Hornberg vs. the Royal Wulff
We have somewhere over 400 great TU Business members. Check them out. Buy some gear. Book a trip. Buy a gift card. You’ll be glad you did, and so will the fish.
DRYFT was founded in 2012 by a couple of steelheaders who had a desire for better, stylish and affordable fishing gear and continues on our mission to offer incredible value through the design and performance of our products, back by great customer service.
Each year since 2016, Trout Unlimited offers a family-friendly outdoor event at our Annual Meeting. It’s a nice change of scenery from the all-indoor conference center presentations. Don’t get me wrong, I love the hospitality suite and NLC sessions as much as the next guy, but there’s something about getting your boots wet in a…
I think I’ve come full circle on the whole “secret fishing spot” argument. I’ve written three guidebooks over the years, with the intent of helping anglers enjoy the public lands resources here in Idaho and in nearby Yellowstone National Park. I also made a little money for the work, and I feel like I earned…
On the one-year anniversary of its designation, Trout Unlimited celebrates the Sáttítla Highlands National Monument, and the fishing and hunting opportunities it provides.
The one thing I think anyone who wants to break into the business of fly fishing should understand, up front, is that it’s not about being a good angler.
Tom Rosenbauer from Orvis teaches us what tools are essential to have for a great day of fly fishing.
by Shannon Mayes Our summer started off with a bang on some brook trout streams in WV. The fish were mostly small, but plentiful. WV brook trout are absolutely beautiful fish! On June 27th eight students, four boys and four girls, along with four chaperones and myself left Gallipolis, Ohio to travel 9 hours, crossing…
Seven years ago, I asked Marcia Woolman, the first woman to win the Ray Mortenson Award, the highest honor Trout Unlimited gives to a volunteer, what was most important for volunteers. Her response? “Chris, just say thank you.” Today, I begin every day thinking about Marcia’s counsel. How do you properly thank over 400 chapters…
Urban refuges are meant to be accessible to more people. In addition to that and the conservation efforts taking place on these public lands, they also promote outdoor recreation.
One of the best things about my job – and there are a lot of best things – is working with young companies. These are businesses, often run by young entrepreneurs, who haven’t been on the fly fishing scene for very long. Don’t get me wrong, I love all our TU Business members. I love…
Paul Deeter and “Chuck Nazty,” the Colorado Rockies all-star center fielder. I’ve been very lucky to have had opportunities to fish with some sports professionals over the years. And while they all have some great stories to tell and are mostly really fun to be on the water with, I have to tell you that…
