Topic: Fishing the Bahamas


In 2010 The Orvis Company named me their Orvis Endorsed Fly Fishing Guide of the Year.

My primary fishery is the Upper Delaware River System fly fishing for wild trout. I've been in several fly fishing magazines as an authority on this river and have also been quoted in several books on fly fishing.

I addition to wild trout, I guide smallmouth bass fishing on the Delaware River and saltwater fly and light tackle fishing for striped bass, false albacore, blues and others. I host trips to several travel destinations in the US, Bahamas and South America and also arrange individual bookings to these locations and several other domestic and international locations.

I've had several articles published on fishing and other topics. Other articles I've written can be found on many web sites and blogs.

Conservation and Environmental issues are important to me. I'm a life member of Trout Unlimited, and a board member of Friends of the Upper Delaware River.

In the future I look to expand into other avenues within the industry and devote more time to helping more people have fun on the water.
