A note from Brian Eavey:

“This was one of those special days, the water was glassy, the wind was calm, and the sun was out. A day you don’t normally see on such big water. We sent the drone up to look around and saw a giant school of Smallmouth Bass swimming around. These are those Smallmouth you show all of your buddies pictures on your phone… We were not prepared to try and catch fish in that shallow of water, we tried but couldn’t fool these fish. With the water being at most 2 feet deep, and having a different approach we would have had some success catching these fish; but that’s what makes everything worthwhile, learning how these fish think and studying their movement.”

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!
