Fly fishing and travel go together, and I have visited locations around the world to chase fish, experience adventure, and learn about new cultures. Some of those places have resonated with me, and it’s those ones that I want to share with you. Below is a listing of my current hosted trip.

July 25 - 31, 2024

Atlantic salmon

Brown trout

Arctic char

All skill levels

A spectacular Atlantic salmon caught in the Mýrarkvísl River. This river allows for shorter casts, putting the angler at an advantage. With a variety of beats, the Mýrarkvísl River will soon be your favorite.

Nothing beats the experience of catching an Icelandic brown trout, this one caught on the Laxá in Aðaldal. The river is known internationally as one of the most famous in Iceland…because of large brown trout!
