Ed Hepp's "Tarpon Hooks"

My good friend Ed Hepp is a graphic designer and illustrator from Portland, Oregon. Ed also happens to be a rabid fly fisherman and one hell of an artist. In fact, he did the Larimer Outfitters logos. Outside of freelancing, Ed showcases his creative talents through art prints, cell phone covers and t-shirts. While he has some beautiful fly fishing art, don't miss his other thoughtful designs.

Happy New Year

Clackamas Steelhead
Wild Winter Steel

I ended the season yesterday spending the day on the water with a good friend. Despite the cold temperatures and a very crowded river, I was lucky enough to land a beautiful wild winter buck on a huge string leech and missed another that grabbed my fly in the same run. It was a great way to put the year to bed! I'm taking it as a good omen for 2013.

Happy New Year!

A close friend of mine is selling an amazing piece of river front property on the Deschutes. This lot is the only remaining lot of its kind on the Lower 100 miles of the Deschutes!

Asking $120,00.00 -Owners need to sell quickly, and are willing to consider reasonable offers.

Filming Skagit Master 4

Skagit Master 4
Swinging from the boat opens lots of new water

I recently returned from filming Skagit Master 4 in the Great Lakes region. It was wonderful to reconnect with some of the rivers I once guided and fished. I also had the privilege of fishing and filming with a few of the best two-handed anglers in the Midwest including Dave Pinczkowski, Jeff Hubbard and Jay Niederstadt.
