Published in TU Business, Community, Fishing, TROUT Magazine

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again: one of the best things about working with Trout Unlimited is the great people you meet. Take Geri Meyer for example. She owned a fly shop for over a decade. Over and over, she kept hearing the frustrations that women have when it comes to buying fly…

Idaho’s bull trout persevere as search for other precious resources continues

Published in Fishing

Unable to see my fly, I was worried I wouldn’t pick up on a take. I shouldn’t have been concerned.

Texas Injection Molding

Why “Texas” Injection Molding? Why did we choose the name “Texas” Injection Molding? The name “Texas” could simply describe our location, but to Texans and to non-Texans the name “Texas” creates a vision that is far beyond a location on a map. Formerly part of Mexico, Tejas was settled by pioneering citizens of the United…

Soccer … and carp fishing

Published in Uncategorized

Ten years ago, I wrote a story for Field & Stream magazine titled “Carp Crazy”, wherein the premise was basically that carp fishing was like soccer in that the rest of the world is stark, raving mad about it, but most Americans don’t get it (or don’t want to). It was a cool story, not…
