I live in Ohio, on the banks of Deer Creek. I am a fly fishing fanatic, and I love fishing for warm water fish, specifically Sunfish species. I prefer to fish with ultralight fly tackle, as I feel that it is more fun to use light tackle when fishing for Sunfish. I started building my own rods in 2008 and it's something I can't seem to give up. I probably have too many rods, but it's been a great learning experience, and it sure is fun.

  Check out my Ultralight Fly Fishing Forum, there is great content and super nice folks with a good deal of Ultralight fly fishing experience. http://ultralightflyfishing.yuku.com/

I am also a contributing writer for Fly Fish Ohio. Be sure to check out the latest articles.
