Nearly two years ago April interviewed me at my home for her podcast. I’m very happy with how this turned out. After spending time on her site, I can see why she’s putting in the effort. Our oral history should not fall into a black hole. Thanks for listening. http://www.aprilvokey.com/podcasts/ JM

SAGE 7130-4 MOD One spey rod. Choose just one….. That is a tall order. In fact, it might be easier to hypothetically design the perfect spey rod in your mind, then wiggle a bunch of commercially made sticks to find the one that conforms to your idea of perfect. Good luck with that. The absolute […]

I was recently asked by SAGE to produce some video clips focusing on Winter and Summer Steelhead fishing tactics. During the process I was fortunate to use a new SAGE Mod 7130 featuring Konnetic Technology. The rod sports a deeper flex than the other Sage spey rod models, making it an efficient tool for casting […]

I posted a couple new clips for you to check out. They might help you find fish and fix that casting flaw that might be nagging you. JM

The great thing about Affiliate Networks is that you don’t have to do anything to make some $$$ other than post the link on your page in a place where people easily see it. The more Skagit Master DVD sales you generate, the more you make. 12% on $39.99 is about $5. I’ll […]

Every year I, and a couple buddies take our dad’s to the Big D for a four day steelhead bender. Shuttling the gear and guys up the river in the Camo Sled made for nearly 60 miles a day of river running, but the flexibility it gave us, the ability to place sons and dads […]

I was cruising through The Fly Fishing Shop’s newsletter and saw the review of the Sage TCX 11′ 9″ switch rods. Mark Bachmann has done a great job putting together the right lines for these sticks. Heck, while you’re there buy some gear…We gotta support the good shops. Check out his thoughts: http://www.flyfishusa.com/newsletter/current/

It’s hot. But the water is cool from a wet summer. The fish are here. Urban summer steelheading in the PNW is something I’ve avoided because I don’t like fishing around a ton of people, but we spent the day trying to flip that into touchable awesomeness. Amazing that with so many fish around, no […]

If you haven’t seen this, you could, if you owned SM2. Or watch it here… I looked through my boxes of flies recently and realized I will most likely never use 90% of them. Every time a new fly concept surfaces, it decreases the likelihood even greater. The Ska-opper is a blast to tie. Pop […]

I’ve been working on a “How To” video channel for steelheaders interested in taking their skills to the next level. We produce the Skagit Master DVD’s to help you move up the ladder by refining angling skills using the latest rods, lines and flies. SM3 promises to do the same, but with your fly tying […]

You wouldn’t know it with the rain we continue to get. Fortunately, the fish are late, still coming in numbers and the crowds are off chasing bigger chrome stuff. It’s my favorite time of the year, this late spring thing. You have the river to yourself, and the fish cooperate if you can […]

Okay, here goes… I’m developing Volume 3 and so far sponsor interest is strong. I want to feature steelhead flies, in their full glory, or not. I plan to explore traditional flies a bit but focus mostly on modern steelhead fly concepts: materials, design, hooks, shanks, rigging, etc…I also plan to feature some non-celeb type […]

Been editing Skagit Master 2 Featuring Scott Howell for, oh it seems about 5 years now….The hard part is deciding what to leave on the cutting room floor because if I put it all in the show, you’d be looking at 5 hours of fishing…and who wants to do that right? Right? Ah c’mon. You […]

It had been nearly 20 years since my dad and I floated the big D together. Thankfully, a couple good buddies have fathers about my Dad’s age and they hit it off. Big Time! Can you say “We went to Brown Town early and full speed!” While my dad struggled with the two hander, he […]

The next 5 days I hope to be full of popping, skating, rushing rises, jumping fish and a big sigh of relief. We’re wrapping things up. As this schedule is winding down I’m realizing that I probably won’t have the DVD ready for release until the first week of October….Hope you can wait that long. […]
