A note from Ryan Mock (@skyandreel):

The best way I can describe this is imagine all the movies with a battle scene of a defensive position. The attacking army is charging and the commander is screaming at young soldiers to “WAIT FOR IT! WAIT FOR IT!” I was playing. Its roles here, my instinct was to set the hook, my thinking brain was screaming at my instincts and somehow my thinking brain won. Even a blind squirrel occasionally finds a nut right.”

Fishing Tips: Carp on The Fly

Nelson Oxley
I’m originally from Tabernash, Colorado, and my passion for fishing started early, influenced by my grandfather, who managed Nelson’s Fly Shop. As soon as I got my driver’s license, I began guiding, and now I’m in my seventh year of doing so. I am a Account Manager at Flylords. I work with various brands in the industry to grow their digital marketing presence and run campaigns to increase their product and brand visibility. One thing I love about Flylords is the passion that goes into our work; everyone is deeply involved in what we strive to create. My favorite types of fishing are casting dry flies from a drift boat and stalking flats species from a skiff!
