Hi. I’m a father of two young boys, a husband, author, fly fishing guide and a musician. I fish for wild brown trout in the cool limestone waters of Central Pennsylvania year round. This is my home, and I love it. Friends. Family. And the river.

  2. Great show, as always. Can you provide link to research on food forms eaten through winter. Would love to study more of the biology. Cheers and thanks, Toney
