A guest post by: Larry Chandler Thanks to the internet and smartphones, it is fairly easy to find almost any information about a local spot such as a restaurant or entertainment venue. Unfortunately, finding information about where to fish and what kind of fish might be available has not been so easy to find. However, [...]
After spending a day fishing Valley Creek and watching the Fly Fishing Film tour it was hard to imagine my weekend could get any better. Then, there was Sunday. Turns out fellow Functioning Fishaholic Jeff has one HECK of a father in law. While I’m not 100% sure how much of his soul he had [...]
Back in January I brought up the subject of fishing knives and the fact that I was in need of a new sharp companion to accompany me on my fishing journeys. I did some research on custom knives and even built a Pinterest board full of shiny sharp things I couldn’t afford. I spent countless [...]
What started as a simple DIY woodworking project turned into a full blown piece of furniture. I use the term DIY but be warned this project may require some of the skills your learned in high school shop class. Before I dig in here, I want to share a link from Pinterest. My fly tying [...]

Not to mention having to switch to cheap domestic beer. But now it’s all yours and you can’t wait to get out on the water. Still, you need to make one more [...]
I was about to fire off a quick Google+ post about Berkley Trilene TransOptic monofilament but then I realized that it would be better suited to a full blown review. Now before you say, “Oh… Another boring line review” check out the video below: I knew that would get you excited! Do you remember Hypercolor [...]
To continue the discussion I was having over on Google Plus with some heavy hitters of the online fly fishing world… After being a good boy for 12 whole months it appears I might have enough Christmas cash (along with change from the couch cushions) to buy a new heavy duty fly rod. In order to keep [...]
I got a little something in the mail last week from one of the coolest fly fishing blogs in the universe. Ladies and gentlemen behold: A 100% genuine, limited edition, T! aka Troutrageous shirt! I would show the back to you but then you’d have no reason to head on over here and check [...]
