Urban Fly Fishing Dallas - Fort Worth

Spectacular day on the Guad with The Grateful Angler, Paul Torrez. Tons of rainbows, one red breast sunfish, and the first redhorse sucker of my life!

Spectacular day on Lake Hawkins with one of the best guides in the business, Alex Guthrie. And my first ever chain pickerel!

If you want to catch bass on Lake Fork or chain pickerel on Lake Hawkins, Alex is your guy. He also guides for stripers, hybrids, sand bass, crappie, etc. all over east Texas. Look him up at Fly Fish Fork.

Went out with my buddy David Hale Smith yesterday. Did a little trouting at Ben Gill Park in Terrell, then to the farm for some bass and crappie. Great day, gorgeous weather!

Some mini-buggers ready for action. What are you targeting??

Nice warm Christmas weather...took a break to wet a line at the farm.

Had an hour or so to kill on Rowlett Creek yesterday. Perfect weather.

DFW folks! Come see me at Dirty Water Fly Co this evening and tie some flies with me!

TYING NIGHT @ THE SHOP IS HERE

Tonight, we welcome Greg DeMars to the shop to host fly tying night. Greg recently authored and released Urban Fly Fishing DFW this spring, which we are thrilled to have as a resource for anglers looking to fish the myriad of local waters in the metroplex.

Greg will be tying two patterns that he frequently relies to fish our local waters, and you can bet they work elsewhere, too. The Baby Bluegill and Topminnow Clouser have been tweaked to mimic two of our local forage fish perfectly.

We have copies on hand to be signed and sold. Please bring your own copy to down to be signed if you already have the title. You can also purchase online today to be shipped or picked up, and we can have it signed tonight. https://dirtywaterflyco.com/products/urban-fly-fishing-dallas-fort-worth
