What is Fishkota Country?

Fishkota country is where the trout gently breach the surface to sip the emerging insects, where the smallmouth smash their way through a herded ball of baitfish, where the pike spread fear to their prey..

Fishkota Country is also where the world of hair, fur and feathers meet steel in the timeless art creation... Where tying flys and sharing knowledge create lifelong passion for the timeless craft....

Fishkota country is where the smile and joy of a fish on the line is equaled by the wonder of the water, the brillance of the changing sky, and being alive where they meet...

A lifelong resident of North Dakota, save for a little college and military travels, I began fly fishing and tying about twenty years ago and have been fortunate to have experienced all that our great state, region, and country has to offer through fly fishing.

I've been fortune to have been surrounded by some of the most accomplished fishers and fly tyers on the planet and their teachings have been inspiration to my thirst for life-long learning and passion for teaching and sharing with others.

Thanks for taking a look at the site and I hope that I can help get you set up to chase anything from Bluegill and Crappie to Pike and Musky...
