Fly Fishing Film Tour 2010
-You might remember the helluva time the Roughfisher and I had this past summer at the 2009 Fly Fishing Film festival with the Flies and Fins crew. Well ladies and gents, the festival is back in town for 2010. Roughfisher aside for 2010 (excuse me while I shed a tear) the fellas from Flies and [...]
A Friday List
I like lists, Quick Simple Entertaining Idea stolen from the roughfisher Cool Right? Everything just looks better in a list. Because the weather in Maine changes more often than the values of a politician, weekend plans can be hit or miss no matter what time of the year it is. This weekend will be no [...]
Happy Birthday Mr. Roughfisher
- Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday dear Roughfisher Happy birthday to you. Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, you look like a roughfish and you smell like one too! Hope your day was swell Mr. Roughfisher, and thank you once again for all of your support. Up’North will [...]
A Long Haul
- After almost a month of living in Southern Maine, tomorrow I make the 5 hour trip home for the weekend. Some may think it’s silly, but I think it’s just what the doctor ordered. In just one full day, I hope to accomplish as much as humanly possible. A few things on the agenda [...]
Roughfisher Cometh!
- The Roughfisher has started his journey towards my beautiful home state of Maine, and I couldn’t be more excited to cast a fly with him. Just think, how many people get to fish with J.P. in salt water? No brownlining planned for this trip, just a full day of chasing Stripers capped off by [...]
The Roughfisher Counts Down…
- The Roughfisher has me excited, and with every hour that passes I get more anxious for our day of fishing for Stripers off the coast of Maine. A full day of fishing capped off by the Fly Fishing Film Tour Party hosted by Flies and Fins should be the experience of a lifetime, and [...]
Mornin' Coffee: Striper Fever
- Living closer to the coast opens up many more new and exciting opportunities this summer. Few of these opportunities excite me as much as the chance to cast a fly on Maine’s coast for Striped Bass. I’m completely set up and ready to roll, all I need now are some flies and a little [...]
The Fly Fishing Film Tour comes to Portland
- For the first time EVER The Fly Fishing Film Tour will be rolling in to Portland, Maine. Normally I would be excluded from such an exciting affair, but this summer things are a little different. Being less than an hour from Portland, I’ll be making an appearance at the show. Joining me for the [...]
Roughfisher Sighting!
-When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. When the Roughfisher gives you decals, you stick em’ to your rigs! In a secret, shameless marketing strategy (and a damn smart one at that) Up’North’s favorite roughfisher Jean-Paul Lipton included loads of RoughFisher.com stickers with my prize of custom blend Fuzzy Naval Dubbing from last weeks [...]
Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!
-Great Success! Recently Up’North comrade and Brownlining Jedi Jean-Paul Lipton of Roughfisher.com held a contest to see who could distinguish commercial blend dubbing from a batch of his own custom creation. A trained eye, and a large helping of luck led to yours truly being the randomly selected winner from a pool of participants who [...]
