The Fall-Winter Fishing Season: What to Expect and Plan For

The Fall-Winter Fishing Season: What to Expect and Plan For

Posted by Nick Teynor on Oct 30th 2025

Fall fishing is in full swing around the state. From fishing to educated trout with tiny dry flies, to stripping streamers for large, aggressive trout in lakes and reservoirs, the fall season offers a little bit of everything for the angler who is prepared for a variety of techniques. To be clear, I will be focusing on techniques that will not target, or deal with fishing to or around spawning b …

Destination Highlight: Frontier Steelhead Experience, British Columbia

Posted by Steve Schmidt on Sep 16th 2025

It was nearing the end of a long fishless day, which is nothing unusual in the steelhead world. Fall light was fading, the warm day cooling as evening approached.

[WR]F.A.Q - Terrestrial Season

Posted by Logan Griffith & Nick Teynor on Aug 29th 2025

Honestly, it's kind of always terrestrial season in the summer months. Ants and beetles are always on the menu, but come August when the grass dries out and the hoppers move closer to the water... that's really what we at the shop consider the start of terrestrial season! Who doesn't love throwing a large, leggy foam fly pattern against a bank and watch a submarine come out of the shadows and gra …

[WR]F.A.Q - High Country

Posted by Nick Teynor & Logan Griffith on Aug 5th 2025

I'd venture out to say that there is something for everyone in the high country. There are small fish, [some] big fish, sight fishing with dry flies, streamers, over 4 species of trout, arctic grayling, big lakes, small ponds, pocket water, meadow streams and that's just the fishing! Short hikes, long multi-day backpacking trips, vast star-ridden skies, red rock amphitheatres, solitude and quietn …

Winston Pure 2 - Musings & Rod Review

Posted by Logan Griffith on Jul 22nd 2025

I’m not the type of angler that needs a specific rod for each piece of water that I enjoy fishing. Okay, I know might sound blasphemous coming from a fly shop employee; After all, fishing the right fly rod, paired with the right line on the right water is one of the most understated joys of this sport. For me, I’ve found the tools that work well for the job that I’m doing (in thi …
