My Husband and I started fly fishing about a year ago. We love spending time on the water together. Fly fishing has brought us closer together, and I love that we both share a passion for it.

I recently got into fly fishing, a year after my dad passed away. He was an avid fly fisherman, and in a grief-filled state, I was sorting through his old musty gear. I decided that I would strap on his size 13 boots, and slip into the decade-old waders, and try my hand at carrying on his legacy. From that moment on, fly fishing has become an integral part of my life and my healing process.

I started fly fishing about a year ago, and it’s become a great passion of mine. My fiancé is a guide, so we are on the water a lot. Every week it’s a new fun adventure. I can’t get enough of it.

This is my two-year-old. She has been fishing with me since she was a month old, and she is awesome.

I had never even touched a fly rod till I began dating my now husband Troy. He is a career firefighter and fly-fishing guide who works 24-hour shifts, and I am a respiratory therapist who works 12-hour shifts. He introduced me to fly fishing, and I fell in love! It’s something we enjoy doing together.

I have been an angler for as long as I can remember, and picked up a fly rod when I was 14. Fly fishing is my passion. I’m obsessed with the sport, the bugs and fish, the art of fly tying, the history–everything. For me it’s the thing that brings me clarity, peace, quiet, and happiness. I love the sounds and smells, the places it takes me, the other animals I encounter along the way. I don’t know what my life would be without it.

Fly fishing is a way that my dad and I connect. We get to spend one-on-one time enjoying the outdoors together. Fly fishing has created a special connection that he and I share.

I immediately fell in love with fly fishing, even though it’s only been a few short years; it’s something I think will be a part of me for years to come. I am excited to be hosting the first #5050OnTheWater event here in Nova Scotia, and am thrilled with the amazing support from our fly fishing community. Here’s to many more!

My ex took me to Sandanona one year to join his casting lesson. I discovered the first sport I’m actually good at and loved it. Next, I took the Orvis classes locally. This year marked my very first official fly-fishing season. I truly thought I’d be too prissy for this, but I stay dry with waders and I enjoy being one with nature. It’s so easy to throw my gear in the trunk and be ready to make a few casts after work and on weekends at the Metroparks. Thank you, Orvis, for all my lessons and helping me discover my new hobby.

The cast is what drew me to fly fishing. I always wanted to learn but didn’t know anyone. I took an intro class from Orvis and instantly fell in love. I started with the goal of getting out once a month, which grew to once or twice a week year-round. I never knew how much joy fly fishing would add to my life.
